In Judah God is
1known; his name is great in Israel.
2
His
2abode has been established in
3Salem, his
4dwelling place in Zion.
3
There he
5broke the flashing arrows, the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah
4
Glorious are you, more majestic
6than the mountains of
7prey.

8The stouthearted were stripped of their spoil;
9they sank into sleep; all the men of war were unable to use their hands.
6
At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both
10rider and horse lay stunned.
7
11But you, you are to be feared! Who can
12stand before you when once your anger is roused?
8
From the heavens you uttered judgment;
13the earth feared and was still,
9
when God
14arose to establish judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. Selah
10
Surely
15the wrath of man shall praise you; the remnant of wrath you will put on like a belt.
11
16Make your vows to the LORD your God and perform them; let all around him
17bring gifts to him who
18is to be feared,
12
who
19cuts off the spirit of princes, who
20is to be feared by the kings of the earth.
