Psalms 68:19-27

19Thanks be to the Lord, who daily carries our burdens for us. God is our salvation. Selah

20Our God is the God of victories. The Almighty Lord is our escape from death.

21Certainly, God will crush the heads of his enemies ⌞and destroy even⌟ the hair on the heads of those who continue to be guilty.

22The Lord said, “I will bring them back from Bashan. I will bring them back from the depths of the sea

23so that you, ⌞my people,⌟ may bathe  your feet in blood and the tongues of your dogs may lick the blood of your enemies.”

24Your festival processions, O God, can be seen by everyone. They are the processions for my God, my king, into the holy place.

25The singers are in front. The musicians are behind them. The young women beating tambourines are between them.

26Thank God, the Lord, the source of Israel, with the choirs.

27Benjamin, the youngest, is leading them, ⌞next⌟ the leaders of Judah with their noisy crowds, ⌞then⌟ the leaders of Zebulun, ⌞then⌟ the leaders of Naphtali.
