76:8 From heaven you announced what their punishment would be. 1
The earth 2 was afraid and silent
76:9 when God arose to execute judgment,
and to deliver all the oppressed of the earth. (Selah)
[76:8] 1 tn Heb “a [legal] decision,” or “sentence.”
[76:8] 2 tn “The earth” stands here by metonymy for its inhabitants.
