Psalm 76

New International Version

Psalm 76^[a]

For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph. A song.

¹God is renowned in Judah;
    in Israel his name is great.^(A)
²His tent is in Salem,^(B)
    his dwelling place in Zion.^(C)
³There he broke the flashing arrows,^(D)
    the shields and the swords, the weapons of war.^[b]^(E)

⁴You are radiant with light,^(F)
    more majestic than mountains rich with game.
⁵The valiant^(G) lie plundered,
    they sleep their last sleep;^(H)
not one of the warriors
    can lift his hands.
⁶At your rebuke,^(I) God of Jacob,
    both horse and chariot^(J) lie still.

⁷It is you alone who are to be feared.^(K)
    Who can stand^(L) before you when you are angry?^(M)
⁸From heaven you pronounced judgment,
    and the land feared^(N) and was quiet—
⁹when you, God, rose up to judge,^(O)
    to save all the afflicted^(P) of the land.
¹⁰Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise,^(Q)
    and the survivors of your wrath are restrained.^[c]

¹¹Make vows to the Lord your God and fulfill them;^(R)
    let all the neighboring lands
    bring gifts^(S) to the One to be feared.
¹²He breaks the spirit of rulers;
    he is feared by the kings of the earth.

New International Version

⁴“But I have been the Lord your God
    ever since you came out of Egypt.^(A)
You shall acknowledge^(B) no God but me,^(C)
    no Savior^(D) except me.
⁵I cared for you in the wilderness,^(E)
    in the land of burning heat.
⁶When I fed them, they were satisfied;
    when they were satisfied, they became proud;^(F)
    then they forgot^(G) me.^(H)
⁷So I will be like a lion^(I) to them,
    like a leopard I will lurk by the path.
⁸Like a bear robbed of her cubs,^(J)
    I will attack them and rip them open;
like a lion^(K) I will devour them—
    a wild animal will tear them apart.^(L)

⁹“You are destroyed, Israel,
    because you are against me,^(M) against your helper.^(N)
¹⁰Where is your king,^(O) that he may save you?
    Where are your rulers in all your towns,
of whom you said,
    ‘Give me a king and princes’?^(P)
¹¹So in my anger I gave you a king,^(Q)
    and in my wrath I took him away.^(R)
¹²The guilt of Ephraim is stored up,
    his sins are kept on record.^(S)
¹³Pains as of a woman in childbirth^(T) come to him,
    but he is a child without wisdom;
when the time^(U) arrives,
    he doesn’t have the sense to come out of the womb.^(V)

¹⁴“I will deliver this people from the power of the grave;^(W)
I will redeem them from death.^(X)
Where, O death, are your plagues?
Where, O grave, is your destruction?^(Y)
