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.

Reina Valera Contemporánea
El Dios de la victoria y del juicio
Al músico principal. Sobre Neginot. Salmo de Asaf. Cántico.
76 Dios es bien conocido en Judá;
grande es su nombre en Israel.
2 En Salén está su tabernáculo,
y en Sión está el lugar donde reside.
3 Allí hizo pedazos las saetas y los arcos,
los escudos, las espadas y las armas de guerra.
4 ¡Glorioso eres tú, Señor, y más imponente que los montes!
5 Los valientes fueron despojados, y durmieron su sueño;
ningún valiente guerrero pudo defenderse.
6 Cuando tú, Dios de Jacob, los reprendiste,
jinetes y caballos quedaron desconcertados.
7 Tú, mi Dios, inspiras temor;
en tu enojo, ¿quién puede sostenerse ante ti?
8 Desde los cielos dictaste tu sentencia;
la tierra tuvo miedo y se quedó en suspenso
9 cuando tú, mi Dios, te levantaste
para juzgar y salvar a los mansos de la tierra.
10 La ira humana redunda en tu alabanza;
todos sus enojos se vuelven para ti una corona.
11 ¡Cumplamos a Dios el Señor nuestras promesas!
Todos los que rodean al Dios temible, ¡tráiganle ofrendas!
12 Dios abate el ánimo de los príncipes,
e infunde temor en los reyes de la tierra.
