OEB PSA Chapter 76

Psalm 76 – A Song of Victory

76 For the leader. With instrumental music. A psalm of Asaph, a song.

76 God has made himself known in Judah,

his name is great in Israel.

2 His tent is in Salem,

his dwelling in Zion.

3 There he broke the lightning arrows,

shield, sword, and weapons of war. Selah

4 Terrible is your splendour

on the everlasting mountains.

5 Despoiled were the stout of heart;

in the sleep into which they had fallen,

none of the warriors

could lift a hand.

6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob,

sank chariot and horse to sleep.

7 Awful are you: who can stand

before you, when once you are angry?

8 The judgment you gave from heaven

frightened the earth into silence,

9 when God arose to judgment

to save the oppressed of the earth. Selah

10 The fiercest will praise you,

to you will the remnant hold festival.

11 Vow and pay to Lord your God,

and let all who are round him bring presents.

12 He lops off the courage of princes,

and with terror fills kings of the earth.
