Psalm 76
God, the Powerful Judge
1God is known in Judah;
2His tent is in Salem,
3There he shatters the bow’s flaming arrows,
4You are resplendent and majestic
5The brave-hearted have been plundered;
they have slipped into their final sleep.
None of the warriors was able to lift a hand.76:5 Jr 51:39
6At your rebuke, God of Jacob,
7And you — you are to be feared.76:7 Or are awe-inspiring
When you are angry,
8From heaven you pronounced judgment.
The earth feared and grew quiet76:8 2Ch 20:29–30; Ps 33:8; Hab 2:20
9when God rose up to judge
and to save all the lowly of the earth.76:9 Ps 9:7–8; Is 3:13–15Selah
10Even human wrath will praise you;
you will clothe yourself
11Make and keep your vows
to the Lord your God;76:11 Ps 50:14
let all who are around him bring tribute
12He humbles the spirit of leaders;
he is feared by the kings of the earth.76:12 Dn 4:37
