Psalms Chapter 74

1 (Maschil of Asaph.) O God, why hast thou cast us off for ever? why
doth thine anger smoke against the sheep of thy pasture?

2 Remember thy congregation, which thou hast purchased of old; the rod
of thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed; this mount Zion, wherein
thou hast dwelt.

3 Lift up thy feet unto the perpetual desolations; even all that the
enemy hath done wickedly in the sanctuary.

4 Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up
their ensigns for signs.

5 A man was famous according as he had lifted up axes upon the thick trees.

6 But now they break down the carved work thereof at once with axes and hammers.

7 They have cast fire into thy sanctuary, they have defiled by casting
down the dwelling place of thy name to the ground.

8 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have
burned up all the synagogues of God in the land.

9 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there
among us any that knoweth how long.

10 O God, how long shall the adversary reproach? shall the enemy
blaspheme thy name for ever?

11 Why withdrawest thou thy hand, even thy right hand? pluck it out of
thy bosom.

12 For God is my King of old, working salvation in the midst of the earth.

13 Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of
the dragons in the waters.

14 Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be
meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.

15 Thou didst cleave the fountain and the flood: thou driedst up mighty rivers.

16 The day is thine, the night also is thine: thou hast prepared the
light and the sun.

17 Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.

18 Remember this, that the enemy hath reproached, O LORD, and that the
foolish people have blasphemed thy name.

19 O deliver not the soul of thy turtledove unto the multitude of the
wicked: forget not the congregation of thy poor for ever.

20 Have respect unto the covenant: for the dark places of the earth are
full of the habitations of cruelty.

21 O let not the oppressed return ashamed: let the poor and needy praise
thy name.

22 Arise, O God, plead thine own cause: remember how the foolish man reproacheth thee daily.

23 Forget not the voice of thine enemies: the tumult of those that rise
up against thee increaseth continually.

Psalms Chapter 75

1 (To the chief Musician, Altaschith, A Psalm or Song of Asaph.) Unto
thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that
thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.

2 When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.

3 The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.

4 I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not
up the horn:

5 Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.

6 For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor
from the south.

7 But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.

8 For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is
full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof,
all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.

9 But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

10 All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.

Psalms Chapter 76

1 (To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm or Song of Asaph.) In
Judah is God known: his name is great in Israel.

2 In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.

3 There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and
the battle. Selah.

4 Thou art more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.

5 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of
the men of might have found their hands.

6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast
into a dead sleep.

7 Thou, even thou, art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when
once thou art angry?

8 Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared,
and was still,

9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. Selah.

10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath
shalt thou restrain.

11 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him
bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

12 He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings
of the earth.

Psalms Chapter 77

1 (To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of Asaph.) I cried unto
God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me.

2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night,
and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted.

3 I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.

4 Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

5 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

6 I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own
heart: and my spirit made diligent search.

7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more?

8 Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?

9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah.

10 And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of
the right hand of the most High.

11 I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy
wonders of old.

12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.

13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?

14 Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength
among the people.

15 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and
Joseph. Selah.

16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid:
the depths also were troubled.

17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows
also went abroad.

18 The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened
the world: the earth trembled and shook.

19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy
footsteps are not known.

20 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
