Psalm 68 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

As smoke ^H6227 is driven ^H5086 away ^H5086, so drive ^H5086 them away ^H5086;

As wax ^H1749 melts ^H4549 before ^H4480 H6440 a fire ^H784,

So the wicked ^H7563 will perish ^H6 before ^H4480 H6440 God ^H430.

But the righteous ^H6662 will be ^H8055 joyful ^H8055; they will rejoice ^H5970 before ^H6440 God ^H430;

Yes, they will rejoice ^H7797 with gladness ^H8057.

Sing ^H7891 to God ^H430, sing ^H2167 praises ^H2167 to His name ^H8034;

[fn]Exalt ^H5549 Him who rides ^H7392 through the deserts ^H6160,

Whose name ^H8034 is [fn]the LORD ^H3050, and be ^H5937 jubilant ^H5937 before ^H6440 Him.

A father ^H1 of the fatherless ^H3490 and a judge ^H1781 [fn]for the widows ^H490,

Is God ^H430 in His holy ^H6944 dwelling ^H4583.

God ^H430 [fn]makes ^H3427 a home ^H1004 for the lonely ^H3173;

He leads ^H3318 out the prisoners ^H615 into prosperity ^H3574,

Only ^H389 the rebellious ^H5637 live ^H7931 in ^H7931 parched ^H6707 lands ^H6707.

God ^H430, when You went ^H3318 forth ^H3318 before ^H6440 Your people ^H5971,

When You marched ^H6805 through the desert ^H3452, Selah ^H5542

The earth ^H776 quaked ^H7493;

The heavens ^H8064 also ^H637 dropped ^H5197 rain at the presence ^H6440 of God ^H430;

[fn]Sinai ^H5514 itself ^H2088 quaked at the presence ^H6440 of God ^H430, the God ^H430 of Israel ^H3478.

You made ^H5130 plentiful ^H5071 rain ^H1653 fall ^H5130, God ^H430;

You confirmed ^H3559 Your inheritance ^H5159 when it was ^H3811 [fn]parched ^H3811.

Your creatures ^H2416 settled ^H3427 in it;

In Your kindness ^H2896 You provided ^H3559 for the poor ^H6041, God ^H430.

The Lord ^H136 gives ^H5414 the [fn]command ^H561;

The women who proclaim ^H1319 good ^H1319 news ^H1319 are a great ^H7227 army ^H6635:

“Kings ^H4428 of armies ^H6635 flee ^H5074, they flee ^H5074,

And she who ^H5116 remains ^H5116 at home ^H1004 will divide ^H2505 the spoils ^H7998!”

[fn]When ^H518 you lie ^H7901 down ^H7901 among ^H996 the sheepfolds ^H8240,

You are like the wings ^H3671 of a dove ^H3123 covered ^H2645 with silver ^H3701,

And its pinions ^H84 with [fn]glistening ^H3422 gold ^H2742.

When the Almighty ^H7706 scattered ^H6566 the kings ^H4428 [fn]there,

It was snowing ^H7949 in Zalmon ^H6756.

The mountain ^H2022 of Bashan ^H1316 is a [fn]mountain ^H2022 of God ^H430;

The mountain ^H2022 of Bashan ^H1316 is a mountain ^H2022 of many ^H1386 peaks ^H1386.

Why ^H4100 do you look ^H7520 with ^H7520 envy ^H7520, you mountains ^H2022 of many ^H1386 peaks ^H1386,

At the mountain ^H2022 God ^H430 has desired ^H2530 as His dwelling ^H3427?

Indeed ^H637, the LORD ^H3068 will dwell ^H7931 there forever ^H5331.

The chariots ^H7393 of God ^H430 are [fn]myriads ^H7239, thousands ^H8136 upon thousands ^H505;

[fn]The Lord ^H136 is among them as at Sinai ^H5514, in holiness ^H6944.

You have ascended ^H5927 on high ^H4791, You have led ^H7617 captive ^H7617 Your captives ^H7628;

You have received ^H3947 gifts ^H4979 among people ^H120,

Even among the rebellious ^H5637 as well ^H637, that [fn]the LORD ^H3050 God ^H430 may dwell ^H7931 there.

Blessed ^H1288 be the Lord ^H136, who daily ^H3117 bears ^H6006 our burden ^H6006,

The God ^H410 who is our salvation ^H3444. Selah ^H5542

God ^H410 is to us a God ^H410 of salvation ^H4190;

And to [fn]GOD ^H3068 the Lord ^H136 belong ways ^H8444 of ^H8444 escape ^H8444 [fn]from death ^H4194.

God ^H430 certainly ^H389 will shatter ^H4272 the heads ^H7218 of His enemies ^H340,

The hairy ^H8181 [fn]head ^H6936 of one who goes ^H1980 about ^H1980 in his guilt ^H817.

The Lord ^H136 [fn]said ^H559, “I will bring ^H7725 them back ^H7725 from Bashan ^H1316.

I will bring ^H7725 them back ^H7725 from the depths ^H4688 of the sea ^H3220,

So ^H4616 that ^H4616 [fn]your foot ^H7272 may shatter ^H4272 them in blood ^H1818,

And the tongue ^H3956 of your dogs ^H3611 may have its portion ^H4521 from your enemies ^H340.”

They have seen ^H7200 Your procession ^H1979, God ^H430,

The procession ^H1979 of my God ^H410, my King ^H4428, [fn]into the sanctuary ^H6944.

The singers ^H7891 went ^H6923 on ^H6923, the musicians ^H5059 after ^H310 them,

[fn]In the midst ^H8432 of the young ^H5959 women ^H5959 beating ^H8608 tambourines ^H8608.

Bless ^H1288 God ^H430 in the congregations ^H4721,

Even the LORD ^H3068, you who are of the fountain ^H4726 of Israel ^H3478.

Benjamin ^H1144, the [fn]youngest ^H6810, is there ^H8033, [fn]ruling ^H7287 them,

The leaders ^H8269 of Judah ^H3063 in their company ^H7277,

The leaders ^H8269 of Zebulun ^H2074, the leaders ^H8269 of Naphtali ^H5321.

[fn]Your God ^H430 has commanded ^H6680 your strength ^H5797;

Show ^H5810 Yourself strong ^H5810, God ^H430, You who ^H2098 acted ^H6466 [fn]in our behalf.

[fn]Because ^H4480 of Your temple ^H1964 at Jerusalem ^H3389

Kings ^H4428 will bring ^H2986 gifts ^H7862 to You.

Rebuke ^H1605 the animals ^H2416 [fn]in the reeds ^H7070,

The herd ^H5712 of bulls ^H47 with the calves ^H5695 of the peoples ^H5971,

Trampling ^H7511 the pieces ^H7518 of silver ^H3701;

He has scattered ^H967 the peoples ^H5971 who delight ^H2654 in war ^H7128.

[fn]Messengers ^H2831 will come ^H857 from Egypt ^H4714;

[fn]Cush ^H3568 will quickly ^H7323 stretch ^H7323 out ^H7323 her hands ^H3027 to God ^H430.

Sing ^H7891 to God ^H430, you kingdoms ^H4467 of the earth ^H776,

Sing ^H2167 praises ^H2167 to the Lord ^H136, Selah ^H5542

To Him who rides ^H7392 upon the [fn]highest ^H8064 heavens ^H8064, which are from ancient ^H6924 times ^H6924;

Behold ^H2005, He [fn]speaks ^H5414 with His voice ^H6963, a mighty ^H5797 voice ^H6963.

Ascribe ^H5414 strength ^H5797 to God ^H430;

His majesty ^H1346 is over ^H5921 Israel ^H3478,

And His strength ^H5797 is in the [fn]skies ^H7834.

[fn]God ^H430, You are awesome ^H3372 from Your [fn]sanctuary ^H4720.

The God ^H410 of Israel ^H3478 Himself ^H1931 gives ^H5414 strength ^H5797 and power ^H8592 to the people ^H5971.

Blessed ^H1288 be God ^H430!
