Jehovah the God of Sinai and of the Holy.
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David, a Song. |
|
| |
|
1 Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered;
Let them also that hate him flee before him.
|
|
2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away:
As wax melteth before the fire,
So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
|
|
3 But let the righteous be glad; let them exult before God:
Yes, let them rejoice with gladness.
|
|
4 Sing unto God, sing praises to his name:
Cast up a highway for him that rideth through the deserts;
His name is Jehovah; and exult ye before him.
|
|
5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows,
Is God in his holy habitation.
|
|
6 God setteth the solitary in families:
He bringeth out the prisoners into prosperity;
But the rebellious dwell in a parched land.
|
|
7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people,
When thou didst march through the wilderness; {Selah
|
|
8 The earth trembled,
The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God:
Yon Sinai trembled at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
|
|
9 Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain,
Thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.
|
|
10 Thy congregation dwelt therein:
Thou, O God, didst prepare of thy goodness for the poor.
|
|
11 Jehovah giveth the word:
The women that publish the tidings are a great host.
|
|
12 Kings of armies shall flee, they shall flee;
And she that tarrieth at home divideth the spoil.
|
|
13 When ye lie among the sheepfolds,
It is as the wings of a dove covered with silver,
And her pinions with yellow gold.
|
|
14 When the Almighty scattered kings therein,
It is as when it snoweth in Zalmon.
|
|
15 A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan;
A high mountain is the mountain of Bashan.
|
|
16 Why look ye askance, ye high mountains,
At the mountain which God hath desired for his abode?
Yes, Jehovah will dwell in it for ever.
|
|
17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands upon thousands:
Jehovah is among them, as in Sinai, in the Holy.
|
|
18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led away captives;
Thou hast received gifts among men,
Yes, among the rebellious also, that Jehovah God might dwell with them.
|
|
19 Blessed be Jehovah, who daily beareth our burden,
Even the God who is our salvation. {Selah
|
|
20 God is unto us a God of salvations;
And unto Jehovah the Lord belongeth escape from death.
|
|
21 But God will smite through the head of his enemies,
The hairy scalp of such a one as goeth on still in his guiltiness.
|
|
22 Jehovah said, I will bring again from Bashan,
I will bring them again from the depths of the sea;
|
|
23 That thou mayest crush them, dipping thy foot in blood,
That the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from thine enemies.
|
|
24 They have seen thy goings, O God,
Even the goings of my God, my King, in the Holy.
|
|
25 The singers went before, the minstrels followed after,
In the midst of the damsels playing with timbrels.
|
|
26 Bless ye God in the congregations,
Even Jehovah, ye that are of the fountain of Israel.
|
|
27 There is little Benjamin their ruler,
The princes of Judah and their council,
The princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
|
|
28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength:
Strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
|
|
29 Because of thy temple at Jerusalem
Kings shall bring presents unto thee.
|
|
30 Rebuke the wild beast of the reeds,
The multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the peoples,
Trampling under foot the pieces of silver:
He hath scattered the peoples that delight in war.
|
|
31 Princes shall come out of Egypt;
Ethiopia shall haste to stretch out her hands unto God.
|
|
32 Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth;
Oh sing praises unto Jehovah; {Selah
|
|
33 To him that rideth upon the heaven of heavens, which are of old;
Lo, he uttereth his voice, a mighty voice.
|
|
34 Ascribe ye strength unto God:
His excellency is over Israel,
And his strength is in the skies.
|
|
35 O God, thou art awesome out of thy sanctuaries:
The God of Israel, he giveth strength and power unto his people.
Blessed be God. |
