1 God is known in Judah; his name is great in Israel.
2 His tent is in Salem, his dwelling place in Zion.
3 There he shatters the bow's flaming arrows, the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah
4 You are resplendent and majestic coming down from the mountains of prey.
5 The brave-hearted have been plundered; they have slipped into their final sleep. None of the warriors was able to lift a hand.
6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both chariot and horse lay still.
7 And you — you are to be feared. When you are angry, who can stand before you?
8 From heaven you pronounced judgment. The earth feared and grew quiet
9 when God rose up to judge and to save all the lowly of the earth. Selah
10 Even human wrath will praise you; you will clothe yourself with the wrath that remains.
11 Make and keep your vows to the LORD your God; let all who are around him bring tribute to the awe-inspiring one.
12 He humbles the spirit of leaders; he is feared by the kings of the earth.
