PSALMS 68:12-27

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

¹³Will ye lie among the sheepfolds, 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; an 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, the LORD 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 thy captivity captive; thou hast received gifts among men, yea, among the rebellious also, that the LORD 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 belong the issues from death.

²¹But God shall smite through the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of such an 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 dip 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.

²⁶Bless ye God in the congregations, even the Lord, ye that are of the fountain of Israel.

²⁷There is little Benjamin their ruler, the princes of Judah and their council, the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
