Thou, even thou, art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?

Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

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.

It is you alone who are to be feared.(A)
    Who can stand(B) before you when you are angry?(C)
From heaven you pronounced judgment,
    and the land feared(D) and was quiet—
when you, God, rose up to judge,(E)
    to save all the afflicted(F) of the land.
10 Surely your wrath against mankind brings you praise,(G)
    and the survivors of your wrath are restrained.[a]
