1
In a Judah God is known;
His name is great in Israel.
2
In 1 Salem 2 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 3 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.
