For the Chief Musician; A Psalm of David, a Song. Let GodH430 ariseH6965, let his enemiesH341 be scatteredH6327; Let them also that hateH8130 him fleeH5127 beforeH6440 him. As smokeH6227 is driven awayH5086, so drive them awayH5086: As waxH1749 meltethH4549 beforeH6440 the fireH784, So let the wickedH7563 perishH6 at the presenceH6440 of GodH430. But let the righteousH6662 be gladH8055; let them exultH5970 beforeH6440 GodH430: Yea, let them rejoiceH5970 with gladnessH8057. SingH7891 unto GodH430, sing praisesH2167 to his nameH8034: Cast up a highwayH5549 for him that ridethH7392 through the desertsH6160; His nameH8034 is JehovahH3050; and exultH5937 ye beforeH6440 him. A fatherH1 of the fatherlessH3490, and a judgeH1781 of the widowsH490, Is GodH430 in his holyH6944 habitationH4583. GodH430 settethH3427 the solitaryH3173 in familiesH1004: He bringeth outH3318 the prisonersH615 into prosperityH3574; But the rebelliousH5637 dwellH7931 in a parchedH6707 land. O GodH430, when thou wentest forthH3318 beforeH6440 thy peopleH5971, When thou didst marchH6805 through the wildernessH3452; {{Selah The earthH776 trembledH7493, The heavensH8064 also droppedH5197 rain at the presenceH6440 of GodH430: YonH2088 SinaiH5514 trembled at the presenceH6440 of GodH430, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478. Thou, O GodH430, didst sendH5130 a plentifulH5071 rainH1653, Thou didst confirmH3559 thine inheritanceH5159, when it was wearyH3811. Thy congregationH2416 dweltH3427 therein: Thou, O GodH430, didst prepareH3559 of thy goodnessH2896 for the poorH6041. The LordH136 givethH5414 the wordH562: The women that publishH1319 the tidings are a greatH7227 hostH6635. KingsH4428 of armiesH6635 fleeH5074, they fleeH5074; And she that tarriethH5116 at homeH1004 dividethH2505 the spoilH7998. When ye lieH7901 among the sheepfoldsH8240, It is as the wingsH3671 of a doveH3123 coveredH2645 with silverH3701, And her pinionsH3671 with yellowH3422 goldH2742. When the AlmightyH7706 scatteredH6566 kingsH4428 therein, It was as when it snowethH7949 in ZalmonH6756. A mountainH2022 of GodH430 is the mountainH2022 of BashanH1316; A highH1386 mountainH2022 is the mountainH2022 of BashanH1316. Why lookH7520 ye askance, ye highH1386 mountainsH2022, At the mountainH2022 which GodH430 hath desiredH2530 for his abodeH3427? Yea, JehovahH3068 will dwellH7931 in it for everH5331. The chariotsH7393 of GodH430 are twenty thousandH7239, even thousandsH505 upon thousandsH8136; The LordH136 is among them, as in SinaiH5514, in the sanctuaryH6944. Thou hast ascendedH5927 on highH4791, thou hast led awayH7628 captivesH7628; Thou hast receivedH3947 giftsH4979 among menH120, Yea, among the rebelliousH5637 also, that JehovahH3050 GodH430 might dwellH7931 with them. BlessedH1288 be the LordH136, who dailyH3117 bearethH6006 our burden, Even the GodH410 who is our salvationH3444. {{Selah GodH410 is unto us a GodH410 of deliverancesH4190; And unto JehovahH136 the LordH136 belongeth escapeH8444 from deathH4194. But GodH430 will smiteH4272 through the headH7218 of his enemiesH341, The hairyH8181 scalpH6936 of such a one as goeth on stillH1980 in his guiltinessH817. The LordH136 saidH559, I will bring againH7725 from BashanH1316, I will bring them againH7725 from the depthsH4688 of the seaH3220; That thou mayest crush them, dippingH4272 thy footH7272 in bloodH1818, That the tongueH3956 of thy dogsH3611 may have its portion from thine enemiesH341. They have seenH7200 thy goingsH1979, O GodH430, Even the goingsH1979 of my GodH410, my KingH4428, into the sanctuaryH6944. The singersH7891 went beforeH6923, the minstrelsH5059 followed afterH310, In the midstH8432 of the damselsH5959 playing with timbrelsH8608. BlessH1288 ye GodH430 in the congregationsH4721, Even the LordH136, ye that are of the fountainH4726 of IsraelH3478. There is littleH6810 BenjaminH1144 their rulerH7287, The princesH8269 of JudahH3063 and their councilH7277, The princesH8269 of ZebulunH2074, the princesH8269 of NaphtaliH5321. Thy GodH430 hath commandedH6680 thy strengthH5797: StrengthenH5810, O GodH430, that whichH2098 thou hast wroughtH6466 for us. Because of thy templeH1964 at JerusalemH3389 KingsH4428 shall bringH2986 presentsH7862 unto thee. RebukeH1605 the wild beastH2416 of the reedsH7070, The multitudeH2416 of the bullsH47, with the calvesH5695 of the peoplesH5971, Trampling under footH7511 the piecesH7518 of silverH3701: He hath scatteredH967 the peoplesH5971 that delightH2654 in warH7128. PrincesH2831 shall come outH857 of EgyptH4714; EthiopiaH3568 shall haste to stretch outH7323 her handsH3027 unto GodH430. SingH7891 unto GodH430, ye kingdomsH4467 of the earthH776; Oh sing praisesH2167 unto the LordH136; {{Selah To him that ridethH7392 upon the heavenH8064 of heavensH8064, which are of oldH6924; Lo, he utterethH5414 his voiceH6963, a mightyH5797 voiceH6963. AscribeH5414 ye strengthH5797 unto GodH430: His excellencyH1346 is over IsraelH3478, And his strengthH5797 is in the skiesH7834. O GodH430, thou art terribleH3372 out of thy holy placesH4720: The GodH410 of IsraelH3478, he givethH5414 strengthH5797 and powerH5797 unto his peopleH5971. BlessedH1288 be GodH430.
