Psalms 68:12-25

¹²Kings of armies flee, they flee; And she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.

¹³When ye lie among the sheepfolds, It is as the wings of a dove covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow gold.

¹⁴When the Almighty scattered kings therein, It was as when it snoweth in Zalmon.

¹⁵A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan; A high mountain is the mountain of Bashan.

¹⁶Why look ye askance, ye high mountains, At the mountain which God hath desired for his abode? Yea, Jehovah will dwell in it for ever.

¹⁷The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands upon thousands: The Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the sanctuary.

¹⁸Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led away captives; Thou hast received gifts among men, Yea, among the rebellious also, that Jehovah God might dwell with them.

¹⁹Blessed be the Lord, who daily beareth our burden, Even the God who is our salvation. Selah

²⁰God is unto us a God of deliverances; And unto Jehovah the Lord belongeth escape from death.

²¹But God will smite through the head of his enemies, The hairy scalp of such a one as goeth on still in his guiltiness.

²²The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring them again from the depths of the sea;

²³That thou mayest crush them, dipping thy foot in blood, That the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from thine enemies.

²⁴They have seen thy goings, O God, Even the goings of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.

²⁵The singers went before, the minstrels followed after, In the midst of the damsels playing with timbrels.
