Strongs On/Off
Context
76:4 You shine brightly and reveal your majesty , as you descend from the hills where you killed your prey .
76:5 The bravehearted were plundered ; they “fell asleep .” All the warriors were helpless .
76:6 At the sound of your battle cry , O God of Jacob , both rider and horse “fell asleep .”
76:7 You are awesome ! Yes, you ! Who can withstand your intense anger ?
76:8 From heaven you announced what their punishment would be. The earth was afraid and silent
76:9 when God arose to execute judgment , and to deliver all the oppressed of the earth . (Selah )
76:10 Certainly your angry judgment upon men will bring you praise ; you reveal your anger in full measure .
76:11 Make vows to the Lord your God and repay them! Let all those who surround him bring tribute to the awesome one!
76:12 He humbles princes ; the kings of the earth regard him as awesome .
