• Psalm 76In Hebrew texts 76:1-12 is numbered 76:2-13.

  • 1 God is renowned in Judah; in Israel his name is great.
  • 2 His tent is in Salem, his dwelling place in Zion.
  • 3 There he broke the flashing arrows, the shields and the swords, the weapons of war.
  • 4 You are radiant with light, more majestic than mountains rich with game.
  • 5 The valiant lie plundered, they sleep their last sleep; not one of the warriors can lift his hands.
  • 6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both horse and chariot lie still.
  • 7 It is you alone who are to be feared. Who can stand before you when you are angry?
  • 8 From heaven you pronounced judgment, and the land feared and was quiet—
  • 9 when you, God, rose up to judge, to save all the afflicted of the land.
  • 10 Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise, and the survivors of your wrath are restrained.
  • 11 Make vows to the Lord your God and fulfill them; let all the neighboring lands bring gifts to the One to be feared.
  • 12 He breaks the spirit of rulers; he is feared by the kings of the earth.
