Psalms 68:8-17

8the earth shakes, yes, the heavens pour down rain before God, the God of Sinai, before God, the God of Israel.

9O God, you cause abundant showers to fall on your chosen people. When they are tired, you sustain them,

10for you live among them. You sustain the oppressed with your good blessings, O God.

11The Lord speaks; many, many women spread the good news.

12Kings leading armies run away – they run away! The lovely lady of the house divides up the loot.

13When you lie down among the sheepfolds, the wings of the dove are covered with silver and with glittering gold.

14When the sovereign judge scatters kings, let it snow on Zalmon!

15The mountain of Bashan is a towering mountain; the mountain of Bashan is a mountain with many peaks.

16Why do you look with envy, O mountains with many peaks, at the mountain where God has decided to live? Indeed the Lord will live there permanently!

17God has countless chariots; they number in the thousands. The Lord comes from Sinai in holy splendor.
