76:1 God is known in Judah; his name is honored in Israel.
76:2 He has his home in Jerusalem; he lives on Mount Zion.
76:3 There he broke the arrows of the enemy, their shields and swords, yes, all their weapons.
76:4 How glorious you are, O God! How majestic, as you return from the mountains where you defeated your foes.
76:5 Their brave soldiers have been stripped of all they had and now are sleeping the sleep of death; all their strength and skill was useless.
76:6 When you threatened them, O God of Jacob, the horses and their riders fell dead.
76:7 But you, Lord, are feared by all. No one can stand in your presence when you are angry.
76:8 You made your judgment known from heaven; the world was afraid and kept silent,
76:9 when you rose up to pronounce judgment, to save all the oppressed on earth.
76:10 Human anger only results in more praise for you; those who survive the wars will keep your festivals.
76:11 Give the Lord your God what you promised him; bring gifts to him, all you nearby nations. God makes everyone fear him;
76:12 he humbles proud princes and terrifies great kings.
