1(76) For the end, among the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel.
1Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.
2And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion.
2When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.
3There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Pause.
3The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
4You do wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains.
4I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
5All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands.
5Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
6At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered.
6For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
7You are terrible; and who shall withstand you, because of your anger?
7But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
8You did cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
8For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.
9when God arose to judgment, to save all the meek in heart. Pause.
9But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
10For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to you: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to you.
10All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
