76:1 To the leader: with stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song. In Judah God is known, his name is great in Israel.
76:2 His abode has been established in Salem, his dwelling-place in Zion.
76:3 There he broke the flashing arrows, the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war.Selah
76:4 Glorious are you, more majestic than the everlasting mountains.
76:5 The stout-hearted were stripped of their spoil; they sank into sleep; none of the troops was able to lift a hand.
76:6 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both rider and horse lay stunned.
76:7 But you indeed are awesome! Who can stand before you when once your anger is roused?
76:8 From the heavens you uttered judgement; the earth feared and was still
76:9 when God rose up to establish judgement, to save all the oppressed of the earth.Selah
76:10 Human wrath serves only to praise you, when you bind the last bit of your wrath around you.
76:11 Make vows to the Lord your God, and perform them; let all who are around him bring gifts to the one who is awesome,
76:12 who cuts off the spirit of princes, who inspires fear in the kings of the earth.
