- Chapter 76 -

The name of God is great in Israel

1
God is known in Judah; His name is great in Israel.
2
His tent is in Salem,(a) His dwelling place in Zion.
3
There He shattered the flaming arrows, the shield and sword and weapons of war.
4
Selah You are resplendent with light, more majestic than mountains filled with game.
5
The valiant lie plundered; they sleep their last sleep. No men of might could lift a hand.
6
At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both horse and rider lie stunned.
7
You alone are to be feared. When You are angry, who can stand before You?
8
From heaven You pronounced judgment, and the earth feared and was still
9
when God rose up to judge, to save all the lowly of the earth.
10
Selah Even the wrath of man shall praise You; with the survivors of wrath You will clothe Yourself.(b)
11
Make and fulfill your vows to the LORD your God; let all the neighboring lands bring tribute to Him who is to be feared.
12
He breaks the spirits of princes; He is feared by the kings of the earth.
