Psalm 68:16-18
New American Standard Bible
16 Why do you look with envy, you mountains of many peaks,
At the mountain God has (A)desired as His dwelling?
Indeed, (B)the Lord will dwell there forever.
17 The (C)chariots of God are [a]myriads, (D)thousands upon thousands;
[b]The Lord is among them as at Sinai, in holiness.
18 You have (E)ascended on high, You have (F)led captive Your captives;
You have received gifts among people,
Even among the rebellious as well, that [c]the Lord God may dwell there.
