ASVs · chapter 68
1 F or the Chief Musician; A Psalm of David, a Song. Let GodH430 arise,H6965 let his enemiesH341 be scattered;H6327 Let them also that hateH8130 him fleeH5127 beforeH6440 him.
2 As smokeH6227 is driven away,H5086 so drive them away:H5086 As waxH1749 meltethH4549 beforeH6440 the fire,H784 So let the wickedH7563 perishH6 at the presenceH6440 of God.H430
3 But let the righteousH6662 be glad;H8055 let them exultH5970 beforeH6440 God:H430 Yea, let them rejoiceH5970 with gladness.H8057
4 SingH7891 unto God,H430 sing praisesH2167 to his name:H8034 Cast up a highwayH5549 for him that ridethH7392 through the deserts;H6160 His nameH8034 is Jehovah;H3050 and exultH5937 ye beforeH6440 him.
5 A fatherH1 of the fatherless,H3490 and a judgeH1781 of the widows,H490 Is GodH430 in his holyH6944 habitation.H4583
6 GodH430 settethH3427 the solitaryH3173 in families:H1004 He bringeth outH3318 the prisonersH615 into prosperity;H3574 But the rebelliousH5637 dwellH7931 in a parchedH6707 land.
7 O God,H430 when thou wentest forthH3318 beforeH6440 thy people,H5971 When thou didst marchH6805 through the wilderness;H3452 H5542
8 The earthH776 trembled,H7493 The heavensH8064 also droppedH5197 [rain] at the presenceH6440 of God:H430 YonH2088 SinaiH5514 [trembled] at the presenceH6440 of God,H430 the GodH430 of Israel.H3478
9 Thou, O God,H430 didst sendH5130 a plentifulH5071 rain,H1653 Thou didst confirmH3559 thine inheritance,H5159 when it was weary.H3811
10 Thy congregationH2416 dweltH3427 therein: Thou, O God,H430 didst prepareH3559 of thy goodnessH2896 for the poor.H6041
11 The LordH136 givethH5414 the word:H562 The women that publishH1319 the tidings are a greatH7227 host.H6635
12 KingsH4428 of armiesH6635 flee,H5074 they flee;H5074 And she that tarriethH5116 at homeH1004 dividethH2505 the spoil.H7998
13 When ye lieH7901 among the sheepfolds,H8240 [It is as] the wingsH3671 of a doveH3123 coveredH2645 with silver,H3701 And her pinionsH3671 with yellowH3422 gold.H2742
14 When the AlmightyH7706 scatteredH6566 kingsH4428 therein, [It was as when] it snowethH7949 in Zalmon.H6756
15 A mountainH2022 of GodH430 is the mountainH2022 of Bashan;H1316 A highH1386 mountainH2022 is the mountainH2022 of Bashan.H1316
16 Why lookH7520 ye askance, ye highH1386 mountains,H2022 At the mountainH2022 which GodH430 hath desiredH2530 for his abode?H3427 Yea, JehovahH3068 will dwellH7931 [in it] for ever.H5331
17 The chariotsH7393 of GodH430 are twenty thousand,H7239 even thousandsH505 upon thousands;H8136 The LordH136 is among them, [as in] Sinai,H5514 in the sanctuary.H6944
18 Thou hast ascendedH5927 on high,H4791 thou hast led awayH7628 captives;H7628 Thou hast receivedH3947 giftsH4979 among men,H120 Yea, [among] the rebelliousH5637 also, that JehovahH3050 GodH430 might dwellH7931 [with them].
19 BlessedH1288 be the Lord,H136 who dailyH3117 bearethH6006 our burden, Even the GodH410 who is our salvation.H3444 H5542
20 GodH410 is unto us a GodH410 of deliverances;H4190 And unto JehovahH136 the LordH136 belongeth escapeH8444 from death.H4194
21 But GodH430 will smiteH4272 through the headH7218 of his enemies,H341 The hairyH8181 scalpH6936 of such a one as goeth on stillH1980 in his guiltiness.H817
22 The LordH136 said,H559 I will bring againH7725 from Bashan,H1316 I will bring [them] againH7725 from the depthsH4688 of the sea;H3220
23 That thou mayest crush [them], [dipping]H4272 thy footH7272 in blood,H1818 That the tongueH3956 of thy dogsH3611 may have its portion from [thine] enemies.H341
24 They have seenH7200 thy goings,H1979 O God,H430 Even the goingsH1979 of my God,H410 my King,H4428 into the sanctuary.H6944
25 The singersH7891 went before,H6923 the minstrelsH5059 followed after,H310 In the midstH8432 of the damselsH5959 playing with timbrels.H8608
26 BlessH1288 ye GodH430 in the congregations,H4721 Even the Lord,H136 [ye that are] of the fountainH4726 of Israel.H3478
27 There is littleH6810 BenjaminH1144 their ruler,H7287 The princesH8269 of JudahH3063 [and] their council,H7277 The princesH8269 of Zebulun,H2074 the princesH8269 of Naphtali.H5321
28 Thy GodH430 hath commandedH6680 thy strength:H5797 Strengthen,H5810 O God,H430 that whichH2098 thou hast wroughtH6466 for us.
29 Because of thy templeH1964 at JerusalemH3389 KingsH4428 shall bringH2986 presentsH7862 unto thee.
30 RebukeH1605 the wild beastH2416 of the reeds,H7070 The multitudeH2416 of the bulls,H47 with the calvesH5695 of the peoples,H5971 Trampling under footH7511 the piecesH7518 of silver:H3701 He hath scatteredH967 the peoplesH5971 that delightH2654 in war.H7128
31 PrincesH2831 shall come outH857 of Egypt;H4714 EthiopiaH3568 shall haste to stretch outH7323 her handsH3027 unto God.H430
32 SingH7891 unto God,H430 ye kingdomsH4467 of the earth;H776 Oh sing praisesH2167 unto the Lord;H136 H5542
33 To him that ridethH7392 upon the heavenH8064 of heavens,H8064 which are of old;H6924 Lo, he utterethH5414 his voice,H6963 a mightyH5797 voice.H6963
34 AscribeH5414 ye strengthH5797 unto God:H430 His excellencyH1346 is over Israel,H3478 And his strengthH5797 is in the skies.H7834
35 O God,H430 [thou art] terribleH3372 out of thy holy places:H4720 The GodH410 of Israel,H3478 he givethH5414 strengthH5797 and powerH5797 unto [his] people.H5971 BlessedH1288 be God.H430
