Context of Psalms 68:26
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. They 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. 28God has commanded that you should be strong. God, please show again how strong you are, as you have used your strength to help us in past times.
