Psalm 68:22–31

22  The Lord said,

“I will bring them back qfrom Bashan,

rI will bring them back from the depths of the sea,

23  that you may sstrike your feet in their blood,

that tthe tongues of your dogs may have their portion from the foe.”

24  Your procession is4 seen, O God,

the procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary—

25  uthe singers in front, vthe musicians last,

between them wvirgins playing tambourines:

26  x“Bless God in the great congregation,

the Lord, O you5 who are of yIsrael’s fountain!”

27  There is zBenjamin, the least of them, in the lead,

the princes of Judah in their throng,

the princes of aZebulun, the princes of Naphtali.

28  bSummon your power, O God,6

the power, O God, by which you have worked for us.

29  Because of your temple at Jerusalem

kings shall cbear gifts to you.

30  Rebuke dthe beasts that dwell among the reeds,

the herd of ebulls with the calves of the peoples.

fTrample underfoot those who lust after tribute;

scatter the peoples who delight in war.7

31  Nobles shall come from gEgypt;

hCush shall hasten to istretch out her hands to God.
