1
God has made himself known in Judah;
his name is great in Israel.
2
His tent is in Salem;
his dwelling place is in Zion.
3
There he broke the arrows of the bow,
the shield, the sword, and the other weapons of war.
Selah
4
You shine brightly and are majestic
as you descend from the mountains, where you killed your victims.
5
The brave of heart were plundered;
they fell asleep.
All the warriors were helpless.
6
At your rebuke, God of Jacob,
both charioteer and horse fell asleep.
7
You, yes you, are to be feared;
who can stand in your sight when you are angry?
8
From heaven you made your judgment heard;
the earth was afraid and silent
9
when you, God, arose to execute judgment
and to save all the oppressed of the earth.
Selah
10
Surely your angry judgment against humanity will bring you praise;
you gird yourself with the remnant of your anger.
11
Make vows to Yahweh your God and keep them.
May all who surround him bring tribute to him who is to be feared.
12
He cuts off the spirit of the princes;
he is feared by the kings of the earth.
