The Second Book of Clement
2Clem
[For the end, among the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian.]
[1]God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel. [No book]
[2]And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion. [No book]
[3]There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. Pause. [No book]
[4]Thou dost wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains. [No book]
[5]All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands. [No book]
[6]At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered. [No book]
[7]Thou art terrible; and who shall withstand thee, because of thine anger? [No book]
[8]Thou didst cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still, [No book]
[9]when God arose to judgment, to save all the meek in heart. Pause. [No book]
[10]For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to thee: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to thee. [No book]
[11]Vow, and pay your vows to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, even to him that is terrible, [No book]
[12]and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible among the kings of the earth. [No book]
