God’s Name Is Great in Israel

¹In Judah, God is known. His name is great in Israel.+ ²His tabernacle is also in Salem. His dwelling place in Zion.+ ³There he broke the flaming arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah.+ ⁴Glorious are you, and excellent, more than mountains of game.+ ⁵Valiant men lie plundered, they have slept their last sleep. None of the men of war can lift their hands.+ ⁶At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.+ ⁷You, even you, are to be feared. Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?+ ⁸You pronounced judgement from heaven. The earth feared, and was silent,+ ⁹when God arose to judgement, to save all the afflicted ones of the earth. Selah.+ ¹⁰Surely the wrath of man praises you. The survivors of your wrath are restrained.+ ¹¹Make vows to the LORD your God, and fulfil them! Let all of his neighbours bring presents to him who is to be feared.+ ¹²He will cut off the spirit of princes. He is feared by the kings of the earth.+
