Psalms 76 — T4T

A psalm written by Asaph for the choir director, to be accompanied by stringed instruments

76Verse 1People in Judah know God;
the Israeli people honor him [MTY].
^{Verse 2}His home is in Jerusalem;he lives on Zion Hill.^{Verse 3}There he broke the flaming arrows that his enemies shot,and he also broke their shields and swords and other weapons that they used in battles.(Think about that!)^{Verse 4}God, you are glorious!
You are like a king as you return from the mountains where you defeated your enemies.
^{Verse 5}Their brave soldiers were killed, and then those who killed them took away everything that those soldiers had.
Those enemies died [EUP],so they were unable to use their weapons any more!^{Verse 6}When you, the God whom Jacob worshiped, rebuked your enemies,the result was that their horses and their riders fell down dead.^{Verse 7}But you cause everyone to be afraid.
When you are angry and you punish people, no one can [RHQ] endure it.
^{Verse 8}From heaven you proclaimed that you would judge people,and then everyone on the earth was afraid and did not say anything more,
^{Verse 9}when you arose to declare that you would punish wicked people
and rescue all those whom they had oppressed.(Think about that!)^{Verse 10}When you punish those with whom you are angry, your people will praise you,and your enemies who ◄survive/are not killed► will worship you on your festival days.^{Verse 11}So give to Yahweh the offerings that you promised to give to him;all the people of nearby people-groups should also bring gifts to him, the one who is awesome.^{Verse 12}He humbles [IDM] princes,and even causes great kings to be terrified.
