For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.

1In Judah is God known: his name is great in Israel.

2In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.

3There he brake the arrows of the bow; the shield, and the sword, and the battle.

Selah

4Glorious art thou andexcellent, from the mountains of prey.

5The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep; and none of the men of might have found their hands.

6At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

7Thou, even thou, art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?

8Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

9When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth.

Selah

10Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the residue of wrath shalt thou gird upon thee.

11Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

12He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.
