76:7 You are feared; no one can stand against you when you are angry.
76:8 From heaven you gave the decision, and the earth was afraid and silent.
76:9 God, you stood up to judge and to save the needy people of the earth. Selah
76:10 People praise you for your anger against evil. Those who live through your anger are stopped from doing more evil.
