1 Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered, And let them who hate Him flee before Him. 2 As smoke is whirled, whirl [them] away: As wax melts before fire, May the wicked perish before God! 3 But may the righteous rejoice [and] exult before God, And be mirthful in joy. 4 Sing to God, harp [to] His name: Throw up a way for Him who rides through the deserts [In] Jah is His name; and exult ye before Him; 5 The orphans' father and the widows' advocate, God in His holy dwelling-place, 6 God, who makes the solitary to dwell in a home, Who brings out the prisoners into prosperity: Yet the rebellious inhabit a burnt-up land.
7 O God, at Thy going forth before Thy people, At Thy marching through the wilderness; Selah. 8 The earth quaked, the heavens also dropped before God Yonder Sinai [quaked] before God, the God of Israel. 9 With a gracious rain, O God, Thou didst besprinkle Thine inheritance; And [when it was] faint, Thou didst refresh it. 10 Thine assembly dwelt herein: Thou didst prepare in Thy goodness for the poor, O God.
11 The Lord gives the word: The women telling the good tidings are a great army. 12 Kings of armies flee, they flee: And the home-keeping [woman] divides the spoil. 13 Will ye lie among the sheep-pens? [Ye shall be as] the wings of a dove that is covered with silver, (?) And her pinions with yellow gold 14 When the Almighty scattered kings in it, It snowed in Salmon. 15 A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan, A many-peaked mountain is the mountain of Bashan. 16 Why look ye with envy, O many-peaked mountains, On the mountain which God has desired to dwell in? Yea, God will abide in it for ever. 17 The chariots of God are myriads and myriads, thousands on thousands: God is among them; Sinai is in the sanctuary. 18 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast led captive a band of captives, Thou hast taken gifts among men, Yea, even the rebellious shall dwell with Jah, God.
19 Blessed be the Lord! Day by day He bears our burdens, Even the God [who is] our salvation. 20 God is to us a God of deliverances, And Jehovah the Lord has escape from death. 21 Yea, God will crush the head of His enemies, The hairy skull of him that goes on in his guiltiness. 22 The Lord has said, From Bashan I will bring back, I will bring back from the depths of the sea: 23 That thou mayest bathe thy foot in blood, That the tongue of thy dogs may have its portion from the enemy.
24 They have seen Thy goings, O God, The goings of my God, my King, into the sanctuary. 25 Before go singers, after [come] those who strike the strings, In the midst of maidens beating timbrels. 26 "In the congregations bless ye God, The Lord, [ye who spring] from the fountain of Israel." 27 There was little Benjamin their ruler, (?) The princes of Judah, their shouting multitude, The princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
28 Command, O God, Thy strength, Show Thyself strong, O God, Thou that hast wrought for us. 29 From Thy temple above Jerusalem Unto Thee shall kings bring presents. 30 Rebuke the beast of the reeds, The herd of bulls, with the calves of the peoples; Tread down those that have pleasure in silver; (?) Scatter the peoples that delight in wars. 31 Great ones shall come from Egypt, Cush shall quickly stretch out her hands to God.
32 Ye kingdoms of the earth, sing to God; Harp [unto] the Lord; Selah. 33 To Him who rides on the heavens of heavens, [which are] of old; Lo, He utters His voice, a voice of strength. 34 Ascribe to God strength, Whose majesty is over Israel, and His strength in the clouds. 35 Dread [art Thou], O God, from Thy sanctuaries, The God of Israel, He gives strength and fulness of might to His people. Blessed be God!
