Psalm 76

Who Can Stand Before You?

To the choirmaster: with #Ps. 4, title stringed instruments. A Psalm of #See Ps. 50, titleAsaph. A Song.

1 In Judah God is *Ps. 48:3known;

his name is great in Israel.

2 His *Ps. 27:5;Lam. 2:6abode has been established in *Gen. 14:18Salem,

his *Ps. 9:11;74:2dwelling place in Zion.

3 There he *Ps. 46:9;[Ezek. 39:9]broke the flashing arrows,

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

4 Glorious are you, more majestic

*[Isa. 14:25;Ezek. 39:4] than the mountains full of *Nah. 2:13prey.

5 *Isa. 46:12The stouthearted were stripped of their spoil;

*Ps. 13:3;2 Kgs. 19:35;Jer. 51:39;Nah. 3:18they sank into sleep;

all the men of war

were unable to use their hands.

6 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob,

both *Ex. 15:1,21rider and horse lay stunned.

7 *Ps. 47:2But you, you are to be feared!

Who can *Ps. 130:3stand before you

when once your anger is roused?

8 From the heavens you uttered judgment;

*2 Chr. 20:29,30;[Hab. 2:20]the earth feared and was still,

9 when God *[Ps. 9:7,8]arose to establish judgment,

to save all the humble of the earth. Selah

10 Surely *[Ex. 9:16]the wrath of man shall praise you;

the remnant*76:10 Or extremity of wrath you will put on like a belt.

11 *See Ps. 50:14Make your vows to the Lord your God and perform them;

let all around him *See Ps. 68:29bring gifts

to him who *Ps. 89:7;Gen. 31:42,53;Isa. 8:13is to be feared,

12 who *[Isa. 18:5] cuts off the spirit of princes,

who *See Ps. 47:2is to be feared by the kings of the earth.
