Psalms 76
1 People in Judah know God; the Israeli people honor him [MTY].
To him that excelleth on Neginoth. A Psalme or song committed to Asaph. God is knowen in Iudah: his Name is great in Israel.
2 His home is in Jerusalem; he lives on Zion [Hill].
For in Shalem is his Tabernacle, and his dwelling in Zion.
3 There he broke the flaming arrows [that his enemies shot], [and he also broke] their shields and swords and other weapons that they used in battles.
There brake he the arrowes of the bowe, the shielde and the sword and the battell. (Selah)
4 God, you are glorious! You are like a king [as you return from] the mountains [where you defeated your enemies].
Thou art more bright and puissant, then the mountaines of pray.
5 Their brave soldiers [were killed, and then those who killed them] took away everything that those soldiers had. Those enemies died [EUP], [so] they were unable to use their weapons [any more]!
The stout hearted are spoyled: they haue slept their sleepe, and all the men of strength haue not found their hands.
6 When you, the God whom Jacob [worshiped], rebuked [your enemies], [the result was that their] horses and their riders fell down dead.
At thy rebuke, O God of Iaakob, both the chariot and horse are cast a sleepe.
7 But you cause everyone to be afraid. When you are angry [and you punish people], no one can [RHQ] endure it.
Thou, euen thou art to be feared: and who shall stand in thy sight, when thou art angrie!
8 From heaven you proclaimed that you would judge people, [and then everyone on] the earth was afraid and did not say [anything more],
Thou didest cause thy iudgement to bee heard from heauen: therefore the earth feared and was still,
9 when you arose to declare that you would punish [wicked people] and rescue all those whom they had oppressed.
When thou, O God, arose to iudgement, to helpe all the meeke of the earth. (Selah)
10 When [you punish those] with whom you are angry, your people will praise you, and [your enemies] who (survive/are not killed) will worship you on your festival days.
Surely the rage of man shall turne to thy praise: the remnant of the rage shalt thou restrayne.
11 [So] give to Yahweh the offerings that you promised to give to him; all the people of nearby people-groups should also bring gifts to him, the one who is awesome.
Vowe and performe vnto the Lord your God, all ye that be rounde about him: let them bring presents vnto him that ought to be feared.
12 He humbles [IDM] princes, and [even] causes [great] kings to be terrified.
He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the Kings of the earth.
