Psalm 76

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁴ Glorious are you, more majestic
    than the everlasting mountains.^[a]
5 The stout-hearted were stripped of their spoil;
    they sank into sleep;
none of the troops
    was able to lift a hand.
⁶ At your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
    both rider and horse lay stunned.

⁷ But you indeed are awesome!
    Who can stand before you
    when once your anger is roused?
⁸ From the heavens you uttered judgement;
    the earth feared and was still
⁹ when God rose up to establish judgement,
    to save all the oppressed of the earth.Selah

¹⁰ Human wrath serves only to praise you,
    when you bind the last bit of your^[b] wrath around you.
¹¹ Make vows to the Lord your God, and perform them;
    let all who are around him bring gifts
    to the one who is awesome,
¹² who cuts off the spirit of princes,
    who inspires fear in the kings of the earth.
