Psalms 76

1God's majesty set forth in his notable defence of the church: 11an exhortation to serve him reverently.


0 To the chief Musician on aNeginoth, A Psalm or Song 1of Asaph.

1 IN bJudah is God known: chis name is great in Israel.

2 In dSalem also is his *tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.

3 There ebrake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah.

4 Thou art more glorious and excellent than fthe mountains of gprey.

5 The hstouthearted are spoiled, they have islept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.

6 At jthy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both kthe chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

7 lThou, even thou, art to be feared: and mwho may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?

8 nThou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

9 oWhen God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. Selah.

10 Surely pthe wrath of man shall praise thee: the qremainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.

11 rVow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let sall that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought 2to be feared.

12 He tshall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.
