Psalms 68:8-17

8The 1earthH776 quakedH7493; The 2heavensH8064 alsoH637 droppedH5197 rain at the presenceH6440 of GodH430; 34SinaiH5514 itselfH2088 quaked at the presenceH6440 of GodH430, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.9You 5shedH5130 abroadH5130 a plentifulH5071 rainH1653, O GodH430; You confirmedH3559 Your inheritanceH5159 when it was 6parchedH3811.10Your creaturesH2421 settledH3427 in it; You 7providedH3559 in Your goodnessH2899 for the poorH6041, O GodH430.

11The LordH136 givesH5414 the 8commandH561; The 9women who proclaimH1319 the good tidingsH1319 are a greatH7227 hostH6635:12“10KingsH4428 of armiesH6635 fleeH5074, they fleeH5074, And she whoH5116 remainsH5116 at homeH1004 will 11divideH2505 the spoilH7998!”1312WhenH518 you lieH7901 downH7901 13amongH996 the 14sheepfoldsH8240, You are like the wingsH3671 of a doveH3123 coveredH2645 with silverH3701, And its pinionsH84 with glisteningH3422 goldH2742.14When the AlmightyH7706 15scatteredH6566 the kingsH4428 16there, It was snowingH7949 in 17ZalmonH6756.

15A 1819mountainH2022 of GodH430 is the mountainH2022 of BashanH1316; A mountainH2022 of many peaksH1386 is the mountainH2022 of BashanH1316.16WhyH4100 do you lookH7520 with envyH7520, O mountainsH2022 with many peaksH1386, At the mountainH2022 which GodH430 has 20desiredH2530 for His abodeH3427? SurelyH637 21the LordH3068 will dwellH7931 there foreverH5331.17The 22chariotsH7393 of GodH430 are 23myriadsH7239, 24thousandsH8136 upon thousandsH505; 25The LordH136 is among them as at SinaiH5514, in holinessH6944.
