Psalms 76
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1(76-1) For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. (76-2) In Judah is God known; His name is great in Israel.
1Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of Asaph.
2(76-3) In Salem also is set His tabernacle, and His dwelling-place in Zion.
2I cried to the Lord with my voice; to God with my voice, and he gave ear to me.
3(76-4) There He broke the fiery shafts of the bow; the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah
3In the day of my trouble I sought God, with my hands lifted up to him in the night, and I was not deceived. My soul refused to be comforted:
4(76-5) Glorious art Thou and excellent, coming down from the mountains of prey.
4I remembered God, and was delighted, and was exercised, and my spirit swooned away.
5(76-6) The stout-hearted are bereft of sense, they sleep their sleep; and none of the men of might have found their hands.
5My eyes prevented the watches: I was troubled, and I spoke not.
6(76-7) At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses.
6I thought upon the days of old: and I had in my mind the eternal years.
7(76-8) Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry?
7And I meditated in the night with my own heart: and I was exercised and I swept my spirit.
8(76-9) Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
8Will God then cast off for ever? or will he never be more favourable again?
9(76-10) When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah
9Or will he cut off his mercy for ever, from generation to generation?
10(76-11) Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee.
10Or will God forget to shew mercy? or will he in his anger shut up his mercies?
11(76-12) Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God; let all that are round about Him bring presents unto Him that is to be feared;
11And I said, Now have I begun: this is the change of the right hand of the most High.
12(76-13) He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
12I remembered the works of the Lord: for I will be mindful of thy wonders from the beginning.
