Psalms 76

Brenton(i) 1 (75:1) For the end, among the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel. 2 (75:2) And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion. 3 (75:3) There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Pause. 4 (75:4) Thou dost wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains. 5 (75:5) All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands. 6 (75:6) At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered. 7 (75:7) Thou art terrible; and who shall withstand thee, because of thine anger? 8 (75:8) Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still, 9 (75:9) when God arose to judgment, to save all the meek in heart. Pause. 10 (75:10) For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to thee: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to thee. 11 (75:11) Vow, and pay your vows to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, even to him that is terrible, 12 (75:12) and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible among the kings of the earth.
