Psalm 68:29-31
Evangelical Heritage Version

God Rules the Nations

29 Because of your temple at Jerusalem kings will bring tribute to you.
30 Threaten the beast among the reeds,
the herd of strong bulls among the calves (that is, the peoples),
    until they submit with bars of silver.[a]
He scatters the peoples who delight in battles.
31 Envoys[b] will come from Egypt.
Cush[c] will run to stretch out its hands to God.
