Psalms 68:6-17 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

6. God settles the lonely in a home; he brings prisoners out into prosperity. But the rebellious abide in a barren land.

7. O God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the desert, Selah

8. the earth shook; the heavens also dripped rain at the presence of God who was at Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

9. You caused abundant rain to fall, O God. When your inheritance was weary you revived it.

10. Your community dwelled in it. You provided in your goodness for the poor, O God.

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.
