Psalms 68:11-23 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

11. The Lord gives the word. Great is the company of women who announce:

12. “The kings of armies flee, they flee, and she who remains at home divides the spoil.

13. Though you men lie down between the sheepfolds, you will be like the wings of a dove covered in silver and its pinions in yellow gold.”

14. When Shaddai scattered kings on it, on Zalmon it snowed.

15. A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan; a mountain of many peaks is the mountain of Bashan.

16. Why do you look with hostility, O many-peaked mountains? This mountain God desires for his dwelling. Yes, Yahweh will abide in it forever.

17. The chariots of God are twice ten thousand, with thousands doubled. The Lord is among them at Sinai, distinctive in victory.

18. You have ascended on high; you have led away captives. You have received gifts from among humankind, and even from the rebellious, so that Yah God may dwell there.

19. Blessed be the Lord. Daily he loads us with benefits, the God of our salvation. Selah

20. Our God is a God of deliverances, and to the Yahweh the Lord belong escapes from death.

21. But God will shatter the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of the one who continues on in his guilt.

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

23. so that your foot may shatter them bloody for the tongues of your dogs to have their share from the enemies.”
