Psalms 68:12-28 Modern English Version (MEV)

12. “Kings of armies flee; they flee!”Even the women who were at home divided the spoil.

13. Though you sleep between the sheepfolds,yet you will be like the wings of a dove overlaid with silver,and its feathers with yellow gold.

14. When the Almighty scattered kings in it,it was white as snow on Mount Zalmon.

15. The mountain of God is as the mountain of Bashan;a mountain of many peaks like the mountain of Bashan.

16. Why are you envious, you mountains of many peaks?This is the mountain which God desires to dwell in;yes, the Lord will dwell in it forever.

17. The chariots of God are twice ten thousand, even thousands of thousands;the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place.

18. You have ascended on high,You have led captivity captive;You have received gifts from people,yes, even from the rebellious,that the Lord God might dwell among them.

19. Blessed be the Lord, who daily loads us with benefits,even the God who is our salvation. Selah

20. That God is for us, the God of saving acts;and to God the Lord belongs escape from death.

21. But God will shatter the head of His enemies,and the scalp of one who walks in his trespasses.

22. The Lord said, “I will cause them to return from Bashan,I will bring my people again from the depths of the sea,

23. that your foot may stomp in the blood of your enemies,and the tongue of your dogs may have a portion in it.”

24. They have seen Your processions, O God,the processions of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.

25. The singers went before,the players on instruments followed after;among them were the young women playing tambourines.

26. Bless God in the congregations,the Lord, from the fountain of Israel.

27. There is little Benjamin leading them,the princes of Judah and their throng of people,the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.

28. Your God has commanded your strength;strengthen, O God, what You have done for us.
