Psalmes 76

P S A L. LXXV.

1 The Prophet praiseth God. 2 Hee promiseth to iudge vprightly. 4 He rebuketh the proud by consideration of Gods prouidence. 9 He praiseth God, & promiseth to execute iustice.

¶ To the chiefe musician Al-taschith, A Psalme or song of Asaph.

LXXVI ¶ Unto thee, O God, doe we giue thankes, vnto thee doe we giue thanks: for that thy name is nere, thy wonderous works declare. 2 [fn]When I shall receiue the congregation, I will iudge vprightly. 3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolued: I beare vp the pillars of it. Selah. 4 I said vnto the fooles, Deale not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not vp the horne. 5 Lift not vp your horne on high: speake not with a stiffe necke. 6 [fn]For promotion commeth neither from the East, nor from the West, nor from the South. 7 But God is the iudge: he putteth downe one, and setteth vp another. 8 For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red: it is full of mixture, and he powreth out of the same: but the dregges thereof all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drinke them. 9 But I will declare for euer; I will sing praises to the God of Iacob. 10 All the hornes of the wicked also will I cut off; but the hornes of the righteous shall be exalted.

P S A L. LXXVI.

1 A declaration of Gods maiestie in the Church. 11 An exhortation to serue him reuerently.

¶ To the chiefe musician on Neginoth, a Psalme or song of Asaph.

LXXVI ¶ In Iudah is God knowen: his name is great in Israel. 2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Sion. 3 There brake he the arrowes of the bowe, the shield, and the sword, and the battell. Selah. 4 Thou art more glorious and excellent then the mountaines of pray. 5 The stout hearted are spoiled, they haue slept their sleepe: and none of the men of might haue found their hands. 6 At thy rebuke, O God of Iacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleepe. 7 Thou, euen thou art to be feared; and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry? 8 Thou didst cause iudgement to be heard from heauen: the earth feared and was still, 9 When God arose to iudgement, to saue all the meeke of the earth. Selah. 10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restraine. 11 [fn]Uowe, and pay vnto the LORD your God; let all that be round about him bring presents vnto him that ought to be feared. 12 Hee shall cut off the spirit of princes: hee is terrible to the kings of the earth.

75:2 Or, when I shall take a set time.
