The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place (68:17) 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 (68:18) Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah (68:19) He that is our God is the God of salvation; and unto GOD the Lord belong the issues from death (68:20) But God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses (68:21) The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring my people again from the depths of the sea (68:22) That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and the tongue of thy dogs in the same (68:23) They have seen thy goings, O God; even the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary (68:24) The singers went before, the players on instruments followed after; among them were the damsels playing with timbrels (68:25) Bless ye God in the congregations, even the Lord, from the fountain of Israel (68:26) There is little Benjamin with their ruler, the princes of Judah and their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali (68:27) Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us (68:28) Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee (68:29) Rebuke the company of spearmen, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the people, till every one submit himself with pieces of silver: scatter thou the people that delight in war (68:30) Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God (68:31) Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; Selah (68:32) To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, he doth send out his voice, and that a mighty voice (68:33) Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds (68:34) O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel is he that giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God
(68:35)
