God’s Enemies Are Scattered

68

68For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. A song. God arises. His enemies are scattered, and those who hate Him flee His presence.

2As smoke is blown away, You will drive [them] out; as wax melts before the fire, the wicked will perish in the presence of God.

3But the righteous will be glad [and] rejoice before God; they will celebrate with joy.

4Sing to God! Sing praises to His name. Exalt Him who rides on the clouds[fn]—His name is the LORD—and rejoice before Him.

5A father of the fatherless and a defender of widows [is] God in His holy habitation.

6God settles the lonely in families; He leads the prisoners {out} to prosperity, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched [land].

7O God, when You went out before Your people, when You marched through the wasteland, Selah

8the earth shook and the heavens poured down [rain] before God, the One [on] Sinai, before God, the God of Israel.

9You sent abundant rain, O God; You refreshed Your weary inheritance.

10Your flock settled therein; O God, from Your bounty You provided for the poor.

11The Lord gives the command; a great company of women proclaim [it]:

12“Kings [and their] armies flee in haste she who waits at home divides the plunder.

13Though you lie down among the sheepfolds, the wings of the dove are covered with silver, and her feathers with shimmering gold.”

14When the Almighty[fn] scattered the kings in [the land], it was like the snow falling on Zalmon.

15A mountain of God [is] Mount Bashan; a mountain [of] [many] peaks [is] Mount Bashan.

16Why do you gaze in envy, O mountains of many peaks? [This is] the mountain God chose for [His] dwelling, where the LORD will surely dwell forever.

17The chariots of God [are] tens of thousands—thousands of thousands [are they]; the Lord [is] in His sanctuary [as He was at] Sinai.[fn]

18You have ascended on high; You have led captives away You have received gifts from men,[fn] even [from] the rebellious, that the LORD God may dwell [there].

19Blessed [be] the Lord, [who] daily bears our burden, the God of our salvation. Selah

20Our God [is] a God of deliverance; the Lord GOD [is our] rescuer from death.

21Surely God will crush the heads of His enemies, the hairy crowns of those who persist in guilty ways.

22The Lord said, “I will retrieve [them] from Bashan, I will bring [them] up from the depths of the sea,

23that your foot may be dipped in the blood of [your] foes—the tongues of your dogs in [the same].”

24They have seen Your procession, O God—the march of my God [and] King into the sanctuary.

25The singers lead the way, the musicians [follow] after, among the maidens playing tambourines.

26Bless God in the great congregation; [bless] the LORD from the fountain of Israel.

27There [is] Benjamin, the youngest, ruling them, the princes of Judah [in] their company, the princes of Zebulun [and] of Naphtali.

28Summon Your power, O God;[fn] show Your strength, O God, which You have exerted on our behalf.

29Because of Your temple at Jerusalem kings will bring You gifts.

30Rebuke the beast in the reeds, the herd of bulls among the calves of the nations, [until] it submits, [bringing] bars of silver. Scatter the nations [who] delight in war.

31Envoys will arrive from Egypt; Cush[fn] will stretch out her hands to God.

32Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth; sing praises to the Lord—Selah

33to Him who rides upon the highest heavens of old; behold, {His} mighty voice resounds.

34Ascribe the power to God, whose majesty [is] over Israel, whose strength [is] in the skies.

35O God, [You are] awesome in Your sanctuary; the God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to [His] people. Blessed [be] God!
