God’s Name Is Great in Israel

1To the overseer upon the stringed instrument: chanting to Asaph song. In Judah was God known: great his name in Israel.

2And his booth shall be in peace, and his dwelling in Zion.

3There he broke the lightnings of the bow, the shield and the sword, and war. Silence.

4Thou art light, being magnified from the mountains of fresh foliage.

5The mighty of heart were spoiled, they slumbered their sleep: and all the men of strength found not their hands.

6From thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, the chariot and the horse lay in a deep sleep.

7Thou art feared, thou: and who shall stand before thee from the time of thine anger?

8From the heavens thou didst cause judgment to be heard; the earth feared and rested.

9In God's rising up to judgment, to save all the poor of the earth. Silence.

10For the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath thou wilt gird up.

11Vow, ye, and repay to Jehovah your God: all being round about him shall bring a gift for fear.

12He will cut off the spirit of leaders, being terrible to the kings of the earth.
