Psalm 76

Psalm

For the chief musician; set to Al Tashheth. A psalm of Asaph, a song.

 We give thanks to you, God;

we give thanks, for you reveal your presence;

people tell of your wondrous works.

2 At the appointed time I will judge fairly.

3 Though the earth and all the inhabitants shake in fear,

I make steady the earth’s pillars. Selah

4 I said to the arrogant, “Do not be arrogant,”

and to the wicked, “Do not lift up the horn.

5 Do not lift up your horn to the heights;

do not speak with an insolent neck.”

6 It is not from the east or from the west,

and it is not from the wilderness that lifting up comes.

7 But God is the judge;

he brings down one and he lifts up another.

8 For Yahweh holds in his hand a cup full of foaming wine,

which is mixed with spices, and pours it out.

Surely all the wicked of the earth will drink it to the last drop.

9 But I will continually tell what you have done;

I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10 He says, “I will cut off all the horns of the wicked,

but the horns of the righteous will be raised up.”

Psalm

For the chief musician, on stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph, a song.

 God has made himself known in Judah;

his name is great in Israel.

2 His tent is in Salem;

his dwelling place is in Zion.

3 There he broke the arrows of the bow,

the shield, the sword, and the other weapons of war. Selah

4 You shine brightly and reveal your glory,

as you descend from the mountains, where you killed your victims.

5 The bravehearted were plundered;

they fell asleep.

All the warriors were helpless.

6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob,

both rider and horse fell asleep.

7 You, yes you, are to be feared;

who can stand in your sight when you are angry?

8 From heaven you made your judgment heard;

the earth was afraid and silent

9 when you, God, arose to execute judgment

and to save all the oppressed of the earth. Selah

10 Surely your angry judgment against humanity will bring you praise;

you gird yourself with what is left of your anger.

11 Make vows to Yahweh your God and keep them.

May all who surround him bring gifts to him who is to be feared.

12 He cuts off the spirit of the princes;

he is feared by the kings of the earth.
