Psalm 76
New International Version
Psalm 76[a]
For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A psalm of Asaph. A song.
1 God is renowned in Judah;
    in Israel his name is great.(A)
2 His tent is in Salem,(B)
    his dwelling place in Zion.(C)
3 There he broke the flashing arrows,(D)
    the shields and the swords, the weapons of war.[b](E)
4 You are radiant with light,(F)
    more majestic than mountains rich with game.
5 The valiant(G) lie plundered,
    they sleep their last sleep;(H)
not one of the warriors
    can lift his hands.
6 At your rebuke,(I) God of Jacob,
    both horse and chariot(J) lie still.
7 It is you alone who are to be feared.(K)
    Who can stand(L) before you when you are angry?(M)
8 From heaven you pronounced judgment,
    and the land feared(N) and was quiet—
9 when you, God, rose up to judge,(O)
    to save all the afflicted(P) of the land.
10 Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise,(Q)
    and the survivors of your wrath are restrained.[c]

Psaltaren 76
Swedish New Living Bible (Nya Levande Bibeln)
Gud segrar
1-2 I Juda känner alla Gud och i hela Israel ärar man hans namn.
3 Hans hem är i Jerusalem. Han bor på berget Sion.
4 Där bröt han sönder pilar, svärd och sköldar, ja alla våra fienders vapen.
5 De eviga bergen kan inte jämföras med dig i härlighet! Våra mäktigaste fiender är besegrade.
6 De stolta krigarna ligger slagna framför oss och har somnat för alltid. Ingen av dem kan lyfta ett finger emot oss.
7 När du, Jakobs Gud, gick till rätta med dem, stupade både hästar och ryttare.
8 Inte undra på att alla fruktar dig! Vem kan vara i din närhet Gud, när du är vred?
9 Från himlen hördes din dom, och då blev människorna stumma och stela av skräck.
10 Du stod upp för att straffa dem som gjort det som är orätt, och för att försvara de ödmjuka på jorden.
11 Samtidigt kommer människornas meningslösa raseri och vrede att bara göra din härlighet större.
12 Uppfyll alla de löften som ni har gett till Herren, er Gud. Och ni folk runt omkring Israel, ära honom med gåvor och frukta honom.
13 Han gör de som härskar ödmjuka, och de som har makt känner fasa inför honom.
Psalm 76
King James Version
76 In Judah is God known: his name is great in Israel.
2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.
3 There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Selah.
4 Thou art more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.
5 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.
6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse 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 cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. Selah.
10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.
11 Vow, and pay unto the Lord your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.
12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.
Psalm 76
New King James Version
The Majesty of God in Judgment
To the Chief Musician. On [a]stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.
76 In (A)Judah God is known;
His name is great in Israel.
2 In [b]Salem also is His tabernacle,
And His dwelling place in Zion.
3 There He broke the arrows of the bow,
The shield and sword of battle. Selah
4 You are more glorious and excellent
(B)Than the mountains of prey.
5 (C)The stouthearted were plundered;
(D)They [c]have sunk into their sleep;
And none of the mighty men have found the use of their hands.
6 (E)At Your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
Both the chariot and horse were cast into a dead sleep.
7 You, Yourself, are to be feared;
And (F)who may stand in Your presence
When once You are angry?
8 (G)You caused judgment to be heard from heaven;
(H)The earth feared and was still,
9 When God (I)arose to judgment,
To deliver all the oppressed of the earth. Selah
10 (J)Surely the wrath of man shall praise You;
With the remainder of wrath You shall gird Yourself.
11 (K)Make vows to the Lord your God, and pay them;
(L)Let all who are around Him bring presents to Him who ought to be feared.
12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes;
(M)He is awesome to the kings of the earth.
