- When you went out before your people, O God, when you marched through the wasteland, Selah
- the earth shook, the heavens poured down rain, before God, the One of Sinai, before God, the God of Israel.
- You gave abundant showers, O God; you refreshed your weary inheritance.
- Your people settled in it, and from your bounty, O God, you provided for the poor.
- The Lord announced the word, and great was the company of those who proclaimed it:
|
- O God, when You went forth before Your people, When You marched through the wilderness, Selah.
- The earth quaked; The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God; Sinai itself quaked at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
- You shed abroad a plentiful rain, O God; You confirmed Your inheritance when it was parched.
- Your creatures settled in it; You provided in Your goodness for the poor, O God.
- The Lord gives the command; The women who proclaim the good tidings are a great host:
|
- "Kings and armies flee in haste; 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."
- When the Almighty scattered the kings in the land, it was like snow fallen on Zalmon.
- The mountains of Bashan are majestic mountains; rugged are the mountains of Bashan.
- Why gaze in envy, O rugged mountains, at the mountain where God chooses to reign, where the LORD himself will dwell forever?
|
- "Kings of armies flee, they flee, And she who remains at home will divide the spoil!"
- When you lie down among the sheepfolds, You are like the wings of a dove covered with silver, And its pinions with glistening gold.
- When the Almighty scattered the kings there, It was snowing in Zalmon.
- A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan; A mountain of many peaks is the mountain of Bashan.
- Why do you look with envy, O mountains with many peaks, At the mountain which God has desired for His abode? Surely the LORD will dwell there forever.
|
- The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands; the Lord has come from Sinai into his sanctuary.
- When you ascended on high, you led captives in your train; you received gifts from men, even from the rebellious-- that you, O LORD God, might dwell there.
|
- The chariots of God are myriads, thousands upon thousands; The Lord is among them as at Sinai, in holiness.
- You have ascended on high, You have led captive Your captives; You have received gifts among men, Even among the rebellious also, that the LORD God may dwell there.
