681To the Overseer. --A Psalm, a song of David. Rise doth God--scattered are His enemies! And those hating Him flee from His face.+2As the driving away of smoke Thou drivest away, As the melting of wax before fire, The wicked perish at the presence of God.+3And the righteous rejoice, they exult before God, And they joy with gladness.+4Sing ye to God--praise His name, Raise up a highway for Him who is riding in deserts, In Jah is His name, and exult before Him.+5Father of the fatherless, and judge of the widows, Is God in His holy habitation.+6God--causing the lonely to dwell at home, Bringing out bound ones into prosperity, Only--the refractory have inhabited a dry place.+7O God, in Thy going forth before Thy people, In Thy stepping through the wilderness, Selah.+8The earth hath shaken, Yea, the heavens have dropped before God, This Sinai--before God, the God of Israel.+9A shower of free-will gifts thou shakest out, O God. Thine inheritance, when it hath been weary, Thou hast established it.+10Thy company have dwelt in it, Thou preparest in Thy goodness for the poor, O God.+11The Lord doth give the saying, The female proclaimers are a numerous host.+12Kings of hosts flee utterly away, And a female inhabitant of the house apportioneth spoil.+13Though ye do lie between two boundaries, Wings of a dove covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow gold.+14When the Mighty spreadeth kings in it, It doth snow in Salmon.+15A hill of God is the hill of Bashan, A hill of heights is the hill of Bashan.+16Why do ye envy, O high hills, The hill God hath desired for His seat? Jehovah also doth tabernacle for ever.+17The chariots of God are myriads, thousands of changes, The Lord is among them, in Sinai, in the sanctuary.+18Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast taken captive captivity, Thou hast taken gifts for men, That even the refractory may rest, O Jah God.+19Blessed is the Lord, day by day He layeth on us. God Himself is our salvation. Selah.+20God Himself is to us a God for deliverances, And Jehovah Lord hath the outgoings of death.+21Only--God doth smite The head of His enemies, The hairy crown of a habitual walker in his guilt.+22The Lord said: `From Bashan I bring back, I bring back from the depths of the sea.+23So that thou dashest thy foot in blood, In the blood of enemies--the tongue of Thy dogs.'+24They have seen Thy goings, O God, Goings of my God, my king, in the sanctuary.+25Singers have been before, Behind are players on instruments, In the midst virgins playing with timbrels.+26In assemblies bless ye God, The Lord--from the fountain of Israel.+27There is little Benjamin their ruler, Heads of Judah their defence, Heads of Zebulun--heads of Naphtali.+28Thy God hath commanded thy strength, Be strong, O God, this Thou hast wrought for us.+29Because of Thy temple at Jerusalem, To Thee do kings bring a present.+30Rebuke a beast of the reeds, a company of bulls, With calves of the peoples, Each humbling himself with pieces of silver, Scatter Thou peoples delighting in conflicts.+31Come do fat ones out of Egypt, Cush causeth her hands to run to God.+32Kingdoms of the earth, sing ye to God, Praise ye the Lord. Selah.+33To him who is riding on the heavens of the heavens of old, Lo, He giveth with His voice a strong voice.+34Ascribe ye strength to God, Over Israel is His excellency, and His strength in the clouds.+35Fearful, O God, out of Thy sanctuaries, The God of Israel Himself, Giving strength and might to the people. Blessed is God!+
