The Victorious Power of the God of Jacob.
For the music director; on stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.
76 God is (A)known in Judah;
His name is (B)great in Israel.
2 His (C)tabernacle is in (D)Salem;
His (E)dwelling place also is in Zion.
3 There He (F)broke the flaming arrows,
The shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah
4 You are resplendent,
More majestic than the mountains of prey.
5 The (G)stouthearted were plundered,
They sank into sleep;
And none of the warriors could use his hands.
6 At Your (H)rebuke, God of Jacob,
Both (I)rider and horse were cast into a dead sleep.
7 You, You indeed are (J)to be feared,
And (K)who may stand in Your presence, once You are angry?
8 You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
The earth (L)feared and was still
9 When God (M)arose to judgment,
To save all the humble of the earth. Selah
10 For the (N)wrath of mankind shall praise You;
You will encircle Yourself with a remnant of wrath.
11 (O)Make vows to the Lord your God and (P)fulfill them;
All who are around Him are to (Q)bring gifts to Him who is to be feared.
12 He will cut off the spirit of princes;
He is (R)feared by the kings of the earth.
