Psalms 68:24-33 in English

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

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

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

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

²⁸ Thy God hath commanded thy strength: Strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.

²⁹ Because of thy temple at Jerusalem Kings shall bring presents unto thee.

³⁰ Rebuke the wild beast of the reeds, The multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the peoples, Trampling under foot the pieces of silver: He hath scattered the peoples that delight in war.

³¹ Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall haste to stretch out her hands unto God.

³² Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; Oh sing praises unto the Lord; Selah

³³ To him that rideth upon the heaven of heavens, which are of old; Lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.

²⁴ Let their eyes be darkened that they should not see; and bow down their back continually.

²⁵ Pour out thy wrath upon them, and let the fury of thine anger take hold on them.

²⁶ Let their habitation be made desolate; and let there be no inhabitant in their tents:

²⁷ because they persecuted him whom thou hast smitten; and they have added to the grief of my wounds.

²⁸ Add iniquity to their iniquity; and let them not come into thy righteousness.

²⁹ Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and let them not be written with the righteous.

³⁰ I am poor and sorrowful; but the salvation of thy countenance has helped me.

³¹ I will praise the name of my God with a song, I will magnify him with praise;

³² and this shall please God more than a young calf having horns and hoofs.

³³ Let the poor see and rejoice; seek the Lord diligently, and ye shall live.

²⁴ They have seen thy goings, O God; even the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.

²⁹ Show that power from your temple in Jerusalem, where kings bring gifts to you.
