PSAL. LXXVI. To the chief musician on Neginoth, A Psalm or song of Asaph. (Book 76)

IN Judah's land God is well known, his Name's in Israel great: In Salem is his Tabernacle,Line 2 in Sion is his Seat. There arrows of the bow he brake,Line 3 the shield, the sword, the war. More glorious thou then hils of prey,Line 4 more excellent art far.
Those that were stout of heart are spoil'd,Line 5 they slept their sleep outright; And none of those their hands did finde that were the men of might. When thy rebuke, O Jacobs God,Line 6 had forth against them past, Their horses and their chariots both were in a dead sleep cast.
Thou, Lord, ev'n thou art He that shouldLine 7 be fear'd, and who is he That may stand up before thy sight, if once thou angry be? From heav'n thou judgement caus'd be heard;Line 8 the earth was still with fear, Line 9

Page 151

When God to judgement rose, to saveLine 9 all meek on earth that were.
Surely the very wrath of manLine 10 unto thy praise redounds: Thou to the remnant of his wrath wilt set restraining bounds. Vow to the Lord, your God, and pay;Line 11 all ye that near Him be Bring gifts and presents unto Him, for to be fear'd is He.
By Him the spirits shall be cut offLine 12 of those that princes are: Unto the Kings that are on earth He fearfull doth appear.
