求主兴起使恶人消灭义人欢欣

68 大卫的诗歌,交于伶长。

愿神兴起,使他的仇敌四散,叫那恨他的人从他面前逃跑。
他们被驱逐,如烟被风吹散;恶人见神之面而消灭,如蜡被火熔化。
唯有义人必然欢喜,在神面前高兴快乐。
你们当向神唱诗,歌颂他的名,为那坐车行过旷野的修平大路——他的名是耶和华,要在他面前欢乐!
神在他的圣所做孤儿的父,做寡妇的申冤者。
神叫孤独的有家,使被囚的出来享福,唯有悖逆的住在干燥之地。

赞美神眷顾其民

神啊,你曾在你百姓前头出来,在旷野行走。(细拉)

那时地见神的面而震动,天也落雨,西奈山见以色列神的面也震动。
神啊,你降下大雨,你产业以色列疲乏的时候,你使他坚固。
10 你的会众住在其中,神啊,你的恩惠是为困苦人预备的。
11 主发命令,传好信息的妇女成了大群。
12 统兵的君王逃跑了,逃跑了!在家等候的妇女,分受所夺的。
13 你们安卧在羊圈的时候,好像鸽子的翅膀镀白银,翎毛镀黄金一般。
14 全能者在境内赶散列王的时候,势如飘雪在撒们
15 巴珊山是神的山,巴珊山是多峰多岭的山。
16 你们多峰多岭的山哪,为何斜看神所愿居住的山?耶和华必住这山,直到永远。
17 神的车辇累万盈千,主在其中,好像在西奈圣山一样。
18 你已经升上高天,掳掠仇敌。你在人间,就是在悖逆的人间,受了供献,叫耶和华神可以与他们同住。

称颂神施行大能

19 天天背负我们重担的主,就是拯救我们的神,是应当称颂的!(细拉)

20 神是为我们施行诸般救恩的神,人能脱离死亡是在乎主耶和华。
21 但神要打破他仇敌的头,就是那常犯罪之人的发顶。
22 主说:“我要使众民从巴珊而归,使他们从深海而回,
23 使你打碎仇敌,你的脚踹在血中,使你狗的舌头从其中得份。”
24 神啊,你是我的神,我的王,人已经看见你行走,进入圣所。
25 歌唱的行在前,作乐的随在后,都在击鼓的童女中间。
26 以色列源头而来的,当在各会中称颂主神。
27 在那里有统管他们的小便雅悯,有犹大的首领和他们的群众,有西布伦的首领,有拿弗他利的首领。
28 以色列的能力是神所赐的,神啊,求你坚固你为我们所成全的事。
29 因你耶路撒冷的殿,列王必带贡物献给你。
30 求你叱喝芦苇中的野兽和群公牛,并列邦中的牛犊,把银块踹在脚下;神已经赶散好争战的列邦。
31 埃及的公侯要出来朝见神,古实人要急忙举手祷告。
32 世上的列国啊,你们要向神歌唱!愿你们歌颂主,
33 歌颂那自古驾行在诸天以上的主!他发出声音,是极大的声音。
34 你们要将能力归给神,他的威荣在以色列之上,他的能力是在穹苍。
35 神啊,你从圣所显为可畏。以色列的神是那将力量、权能赐给他百姓的。神是应当称颂的!

The God of Sinai and of the Sanctuary.

For the music director. A Psalm of David. A Song.

68 [a]May (A)God arise, [b]may His enemies be scattered,
And [c]may those who hate Him flee from His presence.
As (B)smoke is driven away, so drive them away;
As (C)wax melts before a fire,
So the (D)wicked will perish before God.
But the (E)righteous will be joyful; they will rejoice before God;
Yes, they will rejoice with gladness.
Sing to God, (F)sing praises to His name;
[d](G)Exalt Him who (H)rides through the deserts,
Whose (I)name is [e]the Lord, and be jubilant before Him.

A (J)father of the fatherless and a (K)judge [f]for the widows,
Is God in His (L)holy dwelling.
God [g](M)makes a home for the lonely;
He (N)leads out the prisoners into prosperity,
Only (O)the rebellious live in parched lands.

God, when You (P)went forth before Your people,
When You (Q)marched through the desert, Selah
The (R)earth quaked;
The (S)heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God;
[h](T)Sinai itself quaked at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
You (U)made plentiful rain fall, God;
You confirmed Your inheritance when it was [i]parched.
10 Your creatures settled in it;
In Your kindness You (V)provided for the poor, God.

11 The Lord gives the [j]command;
The (W)women who proclaim good news are a great army:
12 (X)Kings of armies flee, they flee,
And she who remains at home will (Y)divide the spoils!”
13 [k]When you lie down (Z)among the sheepfolds,
You are like the wings of a dove covered with silver,
And its pinions with [l]glistening gold.
14 When the Almighty (AA)scattered the kings [m]there,
It was snowing in (AB)Zalmon.

15 (AC)The mountain of Bashan is a [n]mountain of God;
The mountain of Bashan is a mountain of many peaks.
16 Why do you look with envy, you mountains of many peaks,
At the mountain God has (AD)desired as His dwelling?
Indeed, (AE)the Lord will dwell there forever.
17 The (AF)chariots of God are [o]myriads, (AG)thousands upon thousands;
[p]The Lord is among them as at Sinai, in holiness.
18 You have (AH)ascended on high, You have (AI)led captive Your captives;
You have received gifts among people,
Even among the rebellious as well, that [q]the Lord God may dwell there.

19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily (AJ)bears our burden,
(AK)The God who is our salvation. Selah
20 God is to us a (AL)God of salvation;
And (AM)to [r]God the Lord belong ways of escape [s]from death.
21 God certainly will (AN)shatter the heads of His enemies,
The hairy [t]head of one who goes about in his guilt.
22 The Lord [u]said, “(AO)I will bring them back from Bashan.
I will bring them back from the depths of the sea,
23 So that [v](AP)your foot may shatter them in blood,
And the tongue of your (AQ)dogs may have its portion from your enemies.”

24 They have seen (AR)Your procession, God,
The procession of my God, my King, [w](AS)into the sanctuary.
25 The (AT)singers went on, the musicians after them,
[x]In the midst of the (AU)young women beating tambourines.
26 (AV)Bless God in the congregations,
Even the Lord, you who are of the (AW)fountain of Israel.
27 (AX)Benjamin, the [y]youngest, is there, [z]ruling them,
The leaders of Judah in their company,
The leaders of (AY)Zebulun, the leaders of Naphtali.

28 [aa]Your God has (AZ)commanded your strength;
Show Yourself strong, God, You (BA)who acted [ab]in our behalf.
29 [ac]Because of Your temple at Jerusalem
(BB)Kings will bring gifts to You.
30 Rebuke the (BC)animals [ad]in the reeds,
The herd of (BD)bulls with the calves of the peoples,
Trampling the pieces of silver;
He has (BE)scattered the peoples who delight in war.
31 [ae]Messengers will come from (BF)Egypt;
[af](BG)Cush will quickly stretch out her hands to God.

32 Sing to God, you (BH)kingdoms of the earth,
(BI)Sing praises to the Lord, Selah
33 To Him who (BJ)rides upon the [ag](BK)highest heavens, which are from ancient times;
Behold, (BL)He [ah]speaks with His voice, a (BM)mighty voice.
34 (BN)Ascribe strength to God;
His majesty is over Israel,
And (BO)His strength is in the [ai]skies.
35 [aj]God, You are (BP)awesome from Your [ak]sanctuary.
The God of Israel Himself (BQ)gives strength and power to the people.
(BR)Blessed be God!
