Berean Standard Bible

Psalms 68:8-17

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 Almighty1 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 sanctuaryas He was at Sinai.2
