Psalms 76

PSALM 76
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
To the chief Musician on Neginoth,
A Psalm or Song of Asaph.
1In Judah's land God is well known,
his name's in Isr'el great:
2In Salem is his tabernacle,
in Sion is his seat.
3There arrows of the bow he brake,
the shield, the sword, the war.
4More glorious thou than hills of prey,
more excellent art far.
5Those that were stout of heart are spoil'd,
they slept their sleep outright;
And none of those their hands did find,
that were the men of might.
6When thy rebuke, O Jacob's God,
had forth against them past,
Their horses and their chariots both
were in a dead sleep cast.
7Thou, Lord, ev'n thou art he that should
be fear'd; and who is he
That may stand up before thy sight,
if once thou angry be?
8From heav'n thou judgment caus'd be heard;
the earth was still with fear,
9When God to judgment rose, to save
all meek on earth that were.
10Surely the very wrath of man
unto thy praise redounds:
Thou to the remnant of his wrath
wilt set restraining bounds.
11Vow to the Lord your God,
and pay: all ye that near him be,
Bring gifts and presents unto him;
for to be fear'd is he.
12By him the sp'rits shall be cut off
of those that princes are:
Unto the kings that are on earth
he fearful doth appear.

(For the one directing. On stringed instruments. Mizmor of Asaph. Shir)
1In Yehudah is Elohim known; Shmo is gadol in Yisroel.
2 In Shalem#76:2 i.e., Yerushalayim also is His Sukkah, and His Ma'on (dwelling place) in Tziyon.#76:2 See Yochanan chp 14
3 There He broke the flashing arrows, the mogen, and the cherev, and the milchamah. Selah
4 Thou art more glorious and adir (majestic) than the mountains of prey.
5 The stouthearted are plundered; now their last sleep they sleep; and none of the anshei chayil can find their hands.
6 At Thy rebuke, O Elohei Ya'akov, both the merkavah and sus are cast into a dead sleep.
7 Thou, even Thou, art to be feared; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry?
8 Thou didst pronounce din (sentence, judgment) from Shomayim; Eretz feared, and was still,
9 When Elohim arose to mishpat, to save all the meek of Eretz. Selah
10 Surely the chamat adam (the wrath of man) shall praise Thee; the she'erit (remnant, survivor) of wrath shalt Thou restrain.#76:10 from doing evil
11 Make neder (vow), and pay unto Hashem Eloheichem; let all that be around Him bring gifts unto Him that ought to be feared.
12 He shall cut short the ruach of negidim (nobles); He is fearsome to the Malkhei-Aretz (Kings of the Earth).
