Psalms, 75
God is known in his church: and exerts his power in protecting it. It alludes to the slaughter of the Assyrians, in the days of king Ezechias.
Notus in Judaea.
[1] Unto the end, in praises, a psalm for Asaph: a canticle to the Assyrians. •
[2] In Judea God is known: his name is great in Israel. •
[3] And his place is in peace: and his abode in Sion: •
[4] There hath he broken the powers of bows, the shield, the sword, and the battle. •
[5] Thou enlightenest wonderfully from the everlasting hills. •
[6] All the foolish of heart were troubled. They have slept their sleep; and all the men of riches have found nothing in their hands. •
[7] At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they have all slumbered that mounted on horseback. •
[8] Thou art terrible, and who shall resist thee? from that time 1 thy wrath. •
From that time: From the time that thy wrath shall break out.
[9] Thou hast caused judgment to be heard from heaven: the earth trembled and was still, •
[10] When God arose in judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. •
[11] For the thought of man shall give praise to thee: and the remainders of the thought shall keep holiday to thee. •
[12] Vow ye, and pay to the Lord your God: all you that are round about him bring presents. To him that is terrible, •
[13] Even to him who taketh away the spirit of princes: to the terrible with the kings of the earth. •
