Psalm 68:1-35
God arise, his enemies e scattered; But the righteous be glad and rejoice before God.
Sing to God, sing praise to his name, extol him who rides on the clouds -- his name is the Lord - and rejoice before him. (Prepare the way for him who rides through the deserts).
The Lord announced the word, (and great was the company of those who proclaimed it;) and the women who proclaim it are a mighty throng(人群);
Kings and armies flee in haste; the women at home divide the plunder. (in the camps men divide the plunder).
Even while you sleep among the campfires, the wings of my dove are sheathed with silver, its feathers with shining gold.
Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior who daily bears our burdens. Our God is a God who saves; from the Sovereign Lord comes escape from death. Jesus is the Lord.

Let everyone sing the power and majesty of Israel's God!
