Psalm 76:7-9
Because the Lord is the fearsome Judge whose wrath no one can endure, His people must bow before Him in reverence and take comfort that His judgments are exercised for the deliverance of the afflicted.
7 You, even you, are to be feared. Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?
8 You pronounced judgment from heaven. The earth feared, and was silent,
9 when God arose to judgment, to save all the afflicted ones of the earth.
Because the Lord is the fearsome Judge whose wrath no one can endure, his people must bow before him in reverence and take comfort that his judgments are exercised for the deliverance of the afflicted.
To summon reverent fear before the God whose wrath none can withstand and to celebrate his public intervention in judgment for the salvation of the afflicted.
