Psalms 68:6-18
-
6 God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.
-
7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness; Selah:
-
8 The earth shook, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God: even Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
-
9 Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, whereby thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.
-
10 Thy congregation hath dwelt therein: thou, O God, hast prepared of thy goodness for the poor.
-
11 The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.
-
12 Kings of armies did flee apace: and she that tarried at home divided the spoil.
-
13 Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.
-
14 When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as snow in Salmon.
-
15 The hill of God is as the hill of Bashan; an high hill as the hill of Bashan.
-
16 Why leap ye, ye high hills? this is the hill which God desireth to dwell in; yea, the LORD will dwell in it for ever.
-
17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place.
-
18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell among them.
