Context of Psalms 68:14
12The Lord gives the word— a great company of women proclaims the good news. 13“Kings of armies, flee, flee!” She who stays at home divides the spoil. When you lie among the campfires, wings of a dove were covered with silver and her feathers with shimmering gold. 15When Shaddai scattered kings there, it was snowing on Zalmon. 16Mount Bashan is a mountain of God. Mount Bashan is a mountain of peaks.
