Psalms 76:12

He humbles princes; ^{▼▼ Heb “he reduces the spirit of princes.” According to HALOT 148 s.v. II בצר, the Hebrew verb בָּצַר (batsar) is here a hapax legomenon meaning “reduce, humble.” The statement is generalizing, with the imperfect tense highlighting God’s typical behavior.}
the kings of the earth regard him as awesome. ^{▼▼ Heb “[he is] awesome to the kings of the earth.”}

Psalm 77

^{▼▼ Psalm 77. The psalmist recalls how he suffered through a time of doubt, but tells how he found encouragement and hope as he recalled the way in which God delivered Israel at the Red Sea.}
