Psalms 68:5-18

5A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is 1God in his holy habitation.6 2God maketh the solitary into families; those that were bound he bringeth out into prosperity: but the rebellious dwell in a parched [land].7O 3God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness — (Selah) —8The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped at the presence of 4God, yon Sinai, at the presence of 5God, the 6God of Israel.9Thou, O 7God, didst pour a plentiful rain upon thine inheritance, and when it was weary thou strengthenedst it.10Thy flock hath dwelt therein: thou hast prepared in thy goodness, for the afflicted, O 8God!11The Lord gives the word: great the host of the publishers.12Kings of armies flee; they flee, and she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.13Though ye have lain among the sheepfolds, [ye shall be as] wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with green gold.14When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it became snow-white as Zalmon.15[As] mount Bashan is the mount of 9God, a many-peaked mountain, [as] mount Bashan.16Why do ye look with envy, ye many-peaked mountains, upon the mount that 10God hath desired for his abode? yea, Jehovah will dwell [there] for ever.17The chariots of 11God are twenty thousand, thousands upon thousands; the Lord is among them: it is a Sinai in holiness.18Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts in Man, and even [for] the rebellious, for the dwelling [there] of Jah Elohim.
