Psalms 68:18-29 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

18. You have ascended on high, You have led captive Your captives; You have received gifts among men, Even among the rebellious also, that the Lord God may dwell there.

19. Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, The God who is our salvation. Selah.

20. God is to us a God of deliverances; And to God the Lord belong escapes from death.

21. Surely God will shatter the head of His enemies, The hairy crown of him who goes on in his guilty deeds.

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

23. That your foot may shatter them in blood, The tongue of your dogs may have its portion from your enemies."

24. They have seen Your procession, O God, The procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.

25. The singers went on, the musicians after them, In the midst of the maidens beating tambourines.

26. Bless God in the congregations, Even the Lord, you who are of the fountain of Israel.

27. There is Benjamin, the youngest, ruling them, The princes of Judah in their throng, The princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.

28. Your God has commanded your strength; Show Yourself strong, O God, who have acted on our behalf.

29. Because of Your temple at Jerusalem Kings will bring gifts to You.
