\d For the chief musician; A psalm of David, a song.
|
||
\b
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 1 Let God arise; let his enemies be scattered;
|
||
\q let those also who hate him flee before him.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away;
|
||
\q as wax melts before the fire,
|
||
\q so let the wicked perish in the presence of God.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 3 But let the righteous be glad; let them exult before God;
|
||
\q may they rejoice and be happy.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 4 Sing to God, sing praises to his name;
|
||
\q make a highway for him who rides through the plains of the Jordan River valley;
|
||
\q his name is Yahweh; rejoice before him.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 5 A father of the fatherless, a judge of the widows,
|
||
\q is God in the holy place where he lives.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 6 God puts the lonely into families;
|
||
\q he brings out the prisoners with singing;
|
||
\q but the rebellious live in a parched land.
|
||
\b
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 7 God, when you went out before your people,
|
||
\q when you marched through the wilderness,
|
||
\qs Selah\qs*
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 8 The earth trembled;
|
||
\q the heavens also dropped rain in God’s presence,
|
||
\q in the presence of God when he came to Sinai, in the presence of God, the God of Israel.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 9 You, God, sent a plentiful rain;
|
||
\q you strengthened your inheritance when it was weary.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 10 Your people lived in it;
|
||
\q You, God, gave from your goodness to the poor.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 11 The Lord gave the orders,
|
||
\q and those who announced them were a great army.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 12-13 Kings of armies flee, they flee,
|
||
\q and the women waiting at home divide the plunder:
|
||
\q doves covered with silver
|
||
\q with wings of yellow gold.
|
||
\q When some of you people stayed among the sheepfolds, why did you do this?
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 14 The Almighty scattered kings there,
|
||
\q it was as when it snowed on Mount Zalmon.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 15 A mighty mountain is the hill country of Bashan;
|
||
\q a high mountain is the hill country of Bashan.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 16 Why do you look in envy, you high hill country,
|
||
\q at the mountain which God desires for the place he will live?
|
||
\q Indeed, Yahweh will live in it forever.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, thousands upon thousands;
|
||
\q the Lord is among them in the sanctuary, as at Sinai.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 18 You have ascended on high; you have led away captives;
|
||
\q you have received gifts from among men,
|
||
\q even from those who fought against you,
|
||
\q so that you, Yahweh God, might live there.
|
||
\b
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burdens,
|
||
\q the God who is our salvation.
|
||
\qs Selah\qs*
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 20 Our God is a God who saves;
|
||
\q Yahweh the Lord is the one who is able to rescue us from death.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 21 But God will strike through the heads of his enemies,
|
||
\q through the hairy scalps of those who walk in offenses against him.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 22 The Lord said, “I will bring my enemies back from Bashan;
|
||
\q I will bring them back from the depths of the sea
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 23 so that you may crush your enemies, dipping your foot in blood,
|
||
\q and so that the tongues of your dogs may have their share from your
|
||
enemies.”
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 24 They have seen your processions, God,
|
||
\q the processions of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 25 The singers went first, the minstrels followed after,
|
||
\q and in the middle were the unmarried girls playing small drums.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 26 Bless God in the assembly;
|
||
\q praise Yahweh, you true descendants of Israel.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 27 There is first Benjamin, the smallest tribe,
|
||
\q then the leaders of Judah and their multitudes,
|
||
\q the leaders of Zebulun and the leaders of Naphtali.
|
||
\b
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 28 Your God, Israel, has decreed your strength;
|
||
\q reveal to us your power, God, as you have revealed it in times past.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 29 Reveal your power to us from your temple at Jerusalem,
|
||
\q where kings bring gifts to you.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 30 Shout in battle against the wild beasts in the reeds,
|
||
\q against the peoples, that multitude of bulls and calves.
|
||
\q Humiliate them and make them bring you gifts;
|
||
\q scatter the peoples who love to wage war.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 31 Princes will come out of Egypt;
|
||
\q Ethiopia will hurry to reach out with her hands to God.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 32 Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth;
|
||
\qs Selah\qs*
|
||
\q Sing praises to Yahweh.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 33 To him who rides on the heaven of heavens, which exist from ancient times;
|
||
\q see, he lifts up his voice with power.
|
||
|
||
\s5
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 34 Ascribe strength to God;
|
||
\q his majesty is over Israel,
|
||
\q and his strength is in the skies.
|
||
\q
|
||
\v 35 God, you are fearsome in your holy place;
|
||
\q the God of Israel—he gives strength and power to his people.
|
||
\q Blessed be God.
