The Victorious Power of the God of Jacob.

For the choir director; on stringed instruments.

A Psalm of Asaph, a Song.

1
God is known in Judah;
His name is great in Israel. 2
His tabernacle is in Salem;
His dwelling place also is in Zion. 3
There He broke the flaming arrows,
The shield and the sword and the weapons of war. Selah.

 4
You are resplendent,
More majestic than the mountains of prey. 5
The stouthearted were plundered,
They sank into sleep;
And none of the warriors could use his hands. 6
At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
Both rider and horse were cast into a dead sleep. 7
You, even You, are to be feared;
And who may stand in Your presence when once You are angry?

 8
You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
The earth feared and was still 9
When God arose to judgment,
To save all the humble of the earth. Selah. 10
For the wrath of man shall praise You;
With a remnant of wrath You will gird Yourself.

 11
Make vows to the LORD your God and fulfill {them;}
Let all who are around Him bring gifts to Him who is to be feared. 12
He will cut off the spirit of princes;
He is feared by the kings of the earth.
