1For the leader: on stringed instruments: a psalm: for Asaph: a song IN Judah God is known, his name is great in Israel;
2his tent is in Salem, his dwelling in Zion.
3There he has broken the flashing arrows, shield and sword and weapons of war. [Selah]
4You are awesome, Lord, more majestic than the everlasting mountains.
5The bravest are despoiled, they sleep their last sleep, and the strongest cannot lift a hand.
6At your rebuke, God of Jacob, rider and horse lie prostrate.
7You are awesome, Lord; when you are angry, who can stand in your presence?
8You gave sentence out of heaven; the earth was afraid and kept silence
9when you rose in judgement, God, to deliver all the afflicted in the land. [Selah]
10Edom, for all his fury, will praise you and the remnant left in Hamath will dance in worship.
11Make vows to the LORD your God, and keep them; let the peoples all around him bring their tribute;
12for he curbs the spirit of princes, he fills the kings of the earth with awe.
