Psalm 76

¹In Judah, God is known.

His name is great in Israel.

²His tabernacle is also in Salem.

His dwelling place in Zion.

³There he broke the flaming arrows of the bow,

the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war.

⁴Glorious are you, and excellent,

more than mountains of game.

⁵Valiant men lie plundered,

they have slept their last sleep.

None of the men of war can lift their hands.

⁶At your rebuke, God of Jacob,

both chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

⁷You, even you, are to be feared.

Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?

⁸You pronounced judgement from heaven.

The earth feared, and was silent,

⁹when God arose to judgement,

to save all the afflicted ones of the earth.

¹⁰Surely the wrath of man praises you.

The survivors of your wrath are restrained.

¹¹Make vows to the LORD your God, and fulfil them!

Let all of his neighbours bring presents to him who is to be feared.

¹²He will cut off the spirit of princes.

He is feared by the kings of the earth.
