8earth shook, the heavens poured rain at the presence of God, Sinai's God at the presence of God, Israel's God.
9Rain in abundance, God, you did sprinkle, restoring the languishing land of your heritage.
10A dwelling therein your people found: in your goodness, O God, you did care for the poor.
11The Lord spoke the glad tidings of victory, a great army of women proclaim it:
12“Kings of armies they flee, they flee, and the housewife divides the spoil:
13dove's wings covered with silver and pinions with shimmer of gold,
14set with stones, like snow upon Zalmon.”
15A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan, a mountain of peaks is the mountain of Bashan.
16You high-peaked mountains, why look you askance at the mountain which God has desired for his home whereon the Lord will live forever?
17The chariots of God are twice ten thousand: the Lord came from Sinai, his holy place.
18You did mount the height with trains of your captives, and gifts that you had received from the people. The rebels shall live with the Lord God.
19Blest be the Lord who sustains us daily, the God who is also our saviour. Selah
20Our God is a God who is saviour. The ways of escape from death are known to the Lord God.
21Yes, God will shatter the head of his foes the rough scalp of those who strut on in their sins.
