Context of Psalms 68:24
22The Lord said, “I will bring your enemies back from Bashan; I will bring them back from the depths of the [Red] Sea, 23That your foot may crush them in blood, That the tongue of your dogs may have its share from your enemies.” They have seen Your [solemn] procession, O God, The procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary [in holiness]. 25The singers go in front, the players of instruments last; Between them the maidens playing on tambourines. 26Bless God in the congregations, [give thanks, gratefully praise Him], The Lord, you who are from [Jacob] the fountain of Israel.
