76:1 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 stouthearted 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 judgment; the earth feared and was still 76:9 when God rose up to establish judgment, 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. 76:13
