God of heaven and earth, your almighty power is shown above
all in your willingness to forgive and show mercy; let your grace descend upon
us without ceasing, that we may strive for the things you have promised and
come to share the treasures of heaven. We ask this through our Lord Jesus
Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy
Spirit, God for ever and ever. Amen
1 In Judah God is known;
his name is great
in Israel.
2 His abode has been established in Salem,
his dwelling place
in Zion.
3 There he broke the flashing arrows,
the shield, the
sword, and the weapons of war. Selah
4 Glorious are you, more majestic
than the mountains
full of prey.
5 The stouthearted were stripped of their spoil; they sank
into sleep;
all the men of war
were unable to use their hands.
6 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob,
both rider and
horse lay stunned.
7 But you, you are to be feared!
Who can stand
before you when once your anger is roused?
Psalm 76 – English Standard Version
