Psalms 68:19-27

19Praise the Lord, as he deserves! Every day he helps us with our troubles. He is the God who keeps us safe! Selah.

20Our God is the God who rescues people. The Almighty Lord saves us from death.

21He will knock down the heads of his enemies. He will destroy their skulls and their long hair, if they continue to turn against him.

22The Lord says, ‘I will bring my enemies back from Bashan, even from deep down in the sea.

23Then you can wash your feet in their blood. Your dogs can have as much as they want!’

24God, you are my God and my King. People will see the great crowd that goes with you, as you go to your holy temple.

25The singers will march in front. The musicians will follow them. Young women will be with them as they beat their tambourines.

26They all sing, ‘Praise God, all you crowd of people! All you people of Israel, praise the Lord!’

27Benjamin, the smallest tribe, will lead them all. The leaders of Judah, with their big group, will follow. Then will come the leaders of Zebulun and Naphtali.
