1 God is known in Judah;his name is honored in Israel.
2 He has his home in Jerusalem;he lives on Mount Zion.
3 There he broke the arrows of the enemy,their shields and swords, yes, all their weapons.
4 How glorious you are, O God!How majestic, as you return from the mountainswhere you defeated your foes.
5 Their brave soldiers have been stripped of all they hadand now are sleeping the sleep of death;all their strength and skill was useless.
6 When you threatened them, O God of Jacob,the horses and their riders fell dead.
7 But you, Lord, are feared by all.No one can stand in your presencewhen you are angry.
8 You made your judgment known from heaven;the world was afraid and kept silent,
9 when you rose up to pronounce judgment,to save all the oppressed on earth.
10 Human anger only results in more praise for you;those who survive the wars will keep your festivals.
11 Give the Lord your God what you promised him;bring gifts to him, all you nearby nations.God makes everyone fear him;
12 he humbles proud princesand terrifies great kings.
