Psalms 76

¹ For the leader; a psalm with stringed instruments. A song of Asaph.

² Renowned in Judah is God, whose name is great in Israel.

³ On Salem is God's tent, a shelter on Zion.

⁴ There the flashing arrows were shattered, shield, sword, and weapons of war. Selah

⁵ Terrible and awesome are you, stronger than the ancient mountains.

⁶ Despoiled are the bold warriors; they sleep their final sleep; the hands of all the mighty have failed.

⁷ At your roar, O God of Jacob, chariots and steeds lay still.

⁸ So terrible and awesome are you; who can stand before you and your great anger?

⁹ From the heavens you pronounced sentence; the earth was terrified and reduced to silence,

¹⁰ When you arose, O God, for judgment to deliver the afflicted of the land. Selah

¹¹ Even wrathful Edom praises you; the remnant of Hamath keeps your feast.

¹² Make and keep vows to the LORD your God. May all present bring gifts to this awesome God,

¹³ Who checks the pride of princes, inspires awe among the kings of earth.
