Psalms 76

Royal Kingdom

Israel’s God—Judge of All the Earth
To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments.
A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

1

In Judah God is known, his name is great in Israel.

2

His abode has been established in Salem, his dwelling place in Zion.

3

There he broke the flashing arrows, the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war.Selah

4

Glorious are you, more majestic than the everlasting mountains.

5

The stouthearted were stripped of their spoil; they sank into sleep; all the men of war were unable to use their hands.

6

At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both rider and horse lay stunned.

7

But you, you are awesome! Who can stand before you when once your anger is roused?

8

From the heavens you pronounced judgment; the earth feared and was still,

9

when God arose to establish judgment to save all the oppressed of the earth.Selah

10

Surely the wrath of men shall praise you; the residue of wrath you will bind around you.

11

Make your vows to the Lord your God, and perform them; let all around him bring gifts to him who is to be feared,

12

who cuts off the spirit of princes, who is awesome to the kings of the earth.
