上帝是胜利者

亚萨的诗,交给乐长,用弦乐器。

76 上帝在犹大人人皆知,
在以色列威名远扬。
祂的家在耶路撒冷,
祂的居所在锡安山。
祂在那里摧毁敌人的火箭、
盾牌和刀剑等兵器。(细拉)

上帝啊,你荣耀无比,
你的威严超过亘古群山。
强敌被掳掠,他们倒地而亡,
再也不能还手。
雅各的上帝啊,你一斥责,
他们就人仰马翻。
唯有你当受敬畏。
你发怒的时候,
谁能在你面前站立呢?
8-9 上帝啊,
你从天上宣告审判。
你施行审判,
拯救世上一切受苦之人时,
大地一片恐惧静默。(细拉)

10 你向人类发怒为你带来荣耀,
你准备发尽你的烈怒。
11 你们要向你们的上帝耶和华许愿、还愿,
愿四周的邻邦都带礼物来献给当受敬畏的主。
12 祂挫败首领的傲气,
世上的君王都敬畏祂。

God’s Name Is Great in Israel

For the choir director. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

76 God is (A)known in Judah;
His name is (B)great in Israel.
So His [a](C)tabernacle is in (D)Salem;
His (E)dwelling place is in Zion.
There He (F)broke the [b]flaming arrows,
The shield and the sword and the battle. [c]Selah.

You are shining,
Majestic from the mountains of prey.
The (G)stouthearted were plundered,
[d]They sank into sleep;
And none of the [e]warriors could use his hands.
At Your (H)rebuke, O God of Jacob,
Both (I)chariot rider and horse slumbered into a deep sleep.
But You, You are [f](J)fearsome;
And (K)who can stand in Your presence when once [g]You are angry?

You made Your cause to be heard from heaven;
The earth (L)feared and was quiet
When God (M)arose to judgment,
To save all the humble of the earth. Selah.
10 For the [h](N)wrath of man shall praise You;
With a remnant of wrath You will gird Yourself.

11 (O)Make vows to Yahweh your God and (P)pay them;
Let all who are around Him (Q)bring gifts to the Fearsome One.
12 He will cut off the spirit of princes;
He is [i](R)feared by the kings of the earth.
