1   In Judah is God known; * his Name is great in Israel.

2   At Salem is his tabernacle, * and his dwelling is in Zion.

3   There he broke the flashing arrows, * the shield, the sword, and the weapons of battle.

4   How glorious you are! * more splendid than the everlasting mountains!

5   The strong of heart have been despoiled; they sink into sleep; * none of the warriors can lift a hand.

6   At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, * both horse and rider lie stunned.

7   What terror you inspire! * who can stand before you when you are angry?

8   From heaven you pronounced judgment; * the earth was afraid and was still;

9   When God rose up to judgment * and to save all the oppressed of the earth.

10 Truly, wrathful Edom will give you thanks, * and the remnant of Hamath will keep your feasts.

11 Make a vow to the your God and keep it; * let all around him bring gifts to him who is worthy to be feared.

12 He breaks the spirit of princes, * and strikes terror in the kings of the earth.
