Psalm 68:19- 35
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.
Summon your power, God; show us your strength, our God, as you have done before. Because of your temple at Jerusalem kings will bring you gifts. Rebuke the beast among the reeds, the herd of bulls among the calves of the nations. Humbled, may the beast bring bars of silver. Scatter the nations who delight in war.
Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth, sing praise to the Lord, to him who rides across the highest heavens, the ancient heavens, who thunders with mighty voice. Proclaim the power of God, whose majesty is over Israel, whose power is in the heavens. You, God, are awesome in your sanctuary; the God of Israel gives power and strength to his people.
Salvation to Israel - death to the enemy; v24-27 the procession: 28-31 subdue the nations: 32-25 let everyone sing the power and majesty of Israel's God!
Why?
Rebuke the beast among the reeds, the herd of bulls among the calves of the nations: means Egypt. Nations: means the enemies near Israel.
God is my savior who daily bears my burden. Without the Lord, I can do nothing. Without God's blessing, I will stumble or fall anytime.
God is reigning on the top and all should sing to God, sing praise to the Lord, to him who rides across the highest heaven, God reigns across the times.

前面一半講從西奈山到曠野到得榮耀。
後半是神承擔我們的罪
19-23：神叫人得勝。神天天背負我們的重擔，我們每天都有壓力，家庭、工作、人際關係的壓力...
21:神救我們脫離仇敵，最大的仇敵就是我們貪婪的心，私慾的心
23:這個得勝是完全的得勝，連狗都得好處。神使我們歸回得著土地，回到主面前。
24-27:神救我們脫離死亡： 我們要如何回應神呢? 讚美的大隊。神為帶領人，從聖所出來帶人進入聖所，與願意相信他的人同在。以歡樂、敬拜的聲音，有婦女參加表示全民的參與，與全民有關。
28-31：神要萬國來朝貢、來降服。因為萬國看到神的能力，以色列國的殿是神的同在。包括埃及及其他國家。銀在腳下，表示錢已經不重要了，連最貪心的對於銀塊也沒有興趣了。對萬國做見證，就是教會的責任。叫萬民蒙福！黑暗的權勢，內心的私慾一直在伺機反撲，都要被神趕散。
32-35 萬民大合唱：列國萬民都來讚美神，不是只有以色列人歌唱，因這不是神的心意。神眷顧以色列的神，也看顧萬民。

How?
Give thanks to the Lord and praise his Holy name, whose majesty is over the world and in heaven.
