Psalms:68
Seeker Overlay ON
*
To the Chief Musician .
A Psalm of David .
A Songs .
Let God arise ,
let His enemies be scattered ;
also let those who hate Him flee before Him .
*
As smoke is driven away ,
You drive [
them ]
away ;
as wax melts before the fire ,
let the wicked perish in the presence of God .
*
But the righteous are glad ;
they rejoice before God .
Yes ,
let them exceedingly rejoice .
*
Sing to God ,
sing praises to His name ;
praise Him who rides on the heavens by His name JEHOVAH ,
and rejoice before Him .
*
In His holy dwelling God [
is ]
the father of the fatherless ,
and the judge of the widows .
*
God causes the lonely to live at home ;
He brings out those who are bound with chains ;
but the rebellious dwell in a dry [
land ].
*
O God ,
when You marched before Your people ,
when You walked through the wilderness ;
Selah .
*
The earth shook ,
the heavens also dropped at the presence of God ;
Sinai itself [
was moved ]
at the presence of God ,
the God of Israel .
*
You ,
O God ,
sent a plentiful rain ,
by which You upheld Your inheritance when it was weary .
*
Your flock has dwelt in it ;
You ,
O God ,
have prepared in Your goodness for the poor .
*
The Lord gave the word ;
the bearers of it [
were ]
a great army .
*
Kings of armies fled away ;
and she who stayed at home divided the plunder .
*
When you lie among the sheepfolds ,
the wings of a dove [
are ]
covered with silver ,
and its pinions with the shimmer of gold .
*
When the Almighty scatters kings in it ,
it snows on Salmon .
*
The mountain of Bashan [
is ]
God '
s mountain ;
the Bashan range [
is ]
a mountain of peaks .
*
Why do you gaze in envy ,
O mountain range , [
at the ]
mountain God has chosen for His resting place ?
Yes ,
the LORD will dwell [
in it ]
forever .
*
The chariots of God [
are ]
myriads ,
thousands of thousands ;
the Lord [
is ]
among them ,
in Sinai ,
in the holy place .
*
You have gone up on high ;
You have led captivity captive ;
You have received gifts for men ,
yes , [
for ]
the rebellious also ,
that [
You ]
might dwell among them ,
O Jehovah God .
*
Blessed [
is ]
the LORD ;
He daily bears burdens for us ,
the God of our salvation .
Selah .
*
Our God [
is ]
the God of salvation ;
and to the LORD [
are ]
the issues of death .
*
Yea ,
God shall wound the head of His enemies , [
and ]
the hairy crown of him who walks on in his guilt .
*
The Lord said ,
I will bring again from Bashan ;
I will bring back [
My people ]
from the depths of the sea ;
*
so that your foot may be dipped in the blood of [
your ]
enemies ,
and the tongue of your dogs in it .
*
They have seen Your goings ,
O God ;
the goings of my God ,
my King ,
in the holy place .
*
The singers went before ,
then the musicians came ;
among [
them were ]
the virgins playing the timbrels .
*
O bless God in the congregations ,
the Lord ,
from the fountain of Israel .
*
There [
is ]
little Benjamin [
with ]
their ruler ,
the leaders of Judah and their multitude ,
the leaders of Zebulun ,
and the leaders of Naphtali .
*
Your God has commanded your strength ;
O God ,
be strong [
in ]
that which You have worked out for us .
*
Because of Your temple in Jerusalem ,
kings shall bring a present to You .
*
Rebuke the wild beasts of the reeds ,
the herd of bulls ,
with the calves of the peoples ,
trampling down with the pieces of silver .
He scatters the people [
who ]
delight in war .
*
Princes shall come out of Egypt ;
Ethiopia shall stretch out her hands to God .
*
Sing to God ,
you kingdoms of the earth ;
O sing praises to the Lord .
Selah .
*
To Him who rides on the heavens of heavens of old ;
lo ,
He sends out His voice ,
a mighty voice .
*
Give strength to God over Israel ;
His majesty and His strength in the skies .
*
O God ,
You [
are ]
overwhelming out of Your holy places ;
the God of Israel [
is ]
He who gives strength and powers to the people .
Blessed [
is ]
God .
