PSALMS 76 and 77

Who Can Stand Before You?


In Judah God is known;

    his name is great in Israel.

His abode has been established in Salem,

    his dwelling place in Zion.

There he broke the flashing arrows,

    the shield, the sword, and the weapons of war. Selah

Glorious are you, more majestic

    than the mountains full of prey.

The stouthearted were stripped of their spoil;

    they sank into sleep;

all the men of war

    were unable to use their hands.

At your rebuke, O God of Jacob,

    both rider and horse lay stunned.

But you, you are to be feared!

    Who can stand before you

    when once your anger is roused?

From the heavens you uttered judgment;

    the earth feared and was still,

when God arose to establish judgment,

    to save all the humble of the earth. Selah

10 

Surely the wrath of man shall praise you;

    the remnant of wrath you will put on like a belt.

11 

Make your vows to the Lord your God and perform them;

    let all around him bring gifts

    to him who is to be feared,

12 

who cuts off the spirit of princes,

    who is to be feared by the kings of the earth.

psalm 76 song - you indeed are awesome 




I cry aloud to God,

    aloud to God, and he will hear me.

In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;

    in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying;

    my soul refuses to be comforted.

When I remember God, I moan;

    when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah

You hold my eyelids open;

    I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

I consider the days of old,

    the years long ago.

I said, “Let me remember my song in the night;

    let me meditate in my heart.”

    Then my spirit made a diligent search:

“Will the Lord spurn forever,

    and never again be favourable?

Has his steadfast love forever ceased?

    Are his promises at an end for all time?

Has God forgotten to be gracious?

    Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” 

Selah

10 

Then I said, “I will appeal to this,

    to the years of the right hand of the Most High.”

11 

I will remember the deeds of the Lord;

    yes, I will remember your wonders of old.

12 

I will ponder all your work,

    and meditate on your mighty deeds.

13 

Your way, O God, is holy.

    What god is great like our God?

14 

You are the God who works wonders;

    you have made known your might among the peoples.

15 

You with your arm redeemed your people,

    the children of Jacob and Joseph. 

Selah

16 

When the waters saw you, O God,

    when the waters saw you, they were afraid;

    indeed, the deep trembled.

17 

The clouds poured out water;

    the skies gave forth thunder;

    your arrows flashed on every side.

18 

The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind;

    your lightnings lighted up the world;

    the earth trembled and shook.

19 

Your way was through the sea,

    your path through the great waters;

    yet your footprints were unseen.

20 

You led your people like a flock

    by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
