Psalm 76

God’s Name Is Great in Israel

For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A song.

¹God is known in Judah;

His name is great in Israel.

²His tent is in Salem,

His dwelling place in Zion.

³There He shattered the flaming arrows,

the shield and sword and weapons of war.

Selah

⁴You are resplendent with light,

more majestic than mountains filled with game.

⁵The valiant lie plundered; they sleep their last sleep.

No men of might could lift a hand.

⁶At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,

both horse and rider lie stunned.

⁷You alone are to be feared.

When You are angry, who can stand before You?

⁸From heaven You pronounced judgment,

and the earth feared and was still

⁹when God rose up to judge,

to save all the lowly of the earth.

Selah

¹⁰Even the wrath of man shall praise You;

with the survivors of wrath You will clothe Yourself.

¹¹Make and fulfill your vows to Yahweh your God;

let all the neighboring lands bring tribute

to Him who is to be feared.

¹²He breaks the spirits of princes;

He is feared by the kings of the earth.
