Salmos 68
La Biblia de las Américas
El Dios del Sinaí y del santuario
Para el director del coro. Salmo de David. Cántico.
68 Levántese Dios; sean esparcidos sus enemigos,
y huyan delante de Él los que le aborrecen(A).
2 Como se disipa el humo, disípalos(B);
como la cera se derrite delante del fuego(C),
así perezcan los impíos delante de Dios(D).
3 Pero alégrense los justos(E), regocíjense delante de Dios;
sí, que rebosen de alegría.
4 Cantad a Dios, cantad alabanzas a su nombre(F);
abrid paso[a](G) al que cabalga por los desiertos[b](H),
cuyo nombre es el Señor[c](I); regocijaos delante de Él.
5 Padre de los huérfanos(J) y defensor[d] de las viudas(K)
es Dios en su santa morada(L).
6 Dios prepara un hogar(M) para los solitarios[e];
conduce[f] a los cautivos(N) a prosperidad;
solo los rebeldes habitan en una tierra seca(O).
7 Oh Dios, cuando saliste al frente[g] de tu pueblo(P),
cuando marchaste por el desierto(Q), (Selah[h])
8 tembló la tierra(R);
también se derramaron los cielos ante la presencia de Dios(S);
el Sinaí mismo[i] tembló delante de Dios(T), el Dios de Israel.
9 Tú esparciste lluvia abundante, oh Dios(U),
tú fortaleciste[j] tu heredad cuando estaba extenuada[k].
10 Los de tu pueblo[l] se establecieron en ella;
en tu bondad, oh Dios, proveíste para el pobre(V).
11 El Señor da la palabra[m];
las mujeres(W) que anuncian las buenas nuevas son gran multitud[n]:
12 Los reyes de los ejércitos huyen(X); sí huyen,
y la que se queda en casa repartirá el botín(Y).
13 Cuando[o] os acostáis en los apriscos[p](Z),
sois como alas de paloma cubiertas de plata,
y sus plumas de oro resplandeciente.
14 Cuando el Omnipotente[q] dispersó allí[r] a los reyes,
nevaba en el monte Salmón(AA).
15 Monte de Dios[s](AB) es el monte de Basán;
monte de muchos picos es el monte de Basán.
16 ¿Por qué miráis con envidia, oh montes de muchos picos,
al monte que Dios ha deseado para morada suya(AC)?
Ciertamente el Señor habitará allí para siempre(AD).
17 Los carros de Dios(AE) son miríadas, millares y millares[t](AF);
el Señor está entre ellos en santidad, como en el Sinaí[u].
18 Tú has ascendido a lo alto(AG), has llevado en cautividad a tus cautivos(AH);
has recibido dones entre los hombres,
y aun entre los rebeldes, para que el Señor[v] Dios habite entre ellos.
19 Bendito sea el Señor, que cada día lleva nuestra carga(AI),
el Dios que es nuestra salvación(AJ). (Selah)
20 Dios es para nosotros un Dios de salvación[w](AK),
y a Dios[x] el Señor pertenece el librar[y] de la muerte(AL).
21 Ciertamente Dios herirá la cabeza de sus enemigos(AM),
la testa cabelluda del que anda en sus delitos[z](AN).
22 Dijo[aa] el Señor: De Basán(AO) los haré volver;
los haré volver de las profundidades del mar(AP);
23 para que tu pie los aplaste[ab] en sangre(AQ),
y la lengua de tus perros tenga la porción de tus enemigos(AR).
24 Ellos han visto tu procesión[ac](AS), oh Dios,
la procesión[ad] de mi Dios, mi Rey, hacia el santuario[ae](AT).
25 Los cantores iban delante, los músicos detrás(AU),
en medio de las doncellas[af] tocando panderos(AV).
26 Bendecid a Dios en las congregaciones(AW),
al Señor, vosotros del linaje[ag] de Israel(AX).
27 Allí va Benjamín(AY), el más joven[ah], dirigiéndolos[ai],
los príncipes de Judá con su grupo,
los príncipes de Zabulón, los príncipes de Neftalí(AZ).
28 El Dios tuyo ha mandado[aj] tu fuerza(BA);
muestra tu poder, oh Dios, tú que has obrado por nosotros(BB).
29 Por causa de[ak] tu templo en Jerusalén
te traerán presentes los reyes(BC).
30 Reprende las fieras de las cañas(BD),
la manada de toros[al](BE) con los becerros de los pueblos,
pisoteando las piezas de plata;
Él ha dispersado a los pueblos que se deleitan en la guerra(BF).
31 De Egipto(BG) saldrán mensajeros;
Etiopía[am] se apresurará a extender sus manos hacia Dios(BH).
32 Cantad a Dios, oh reinos de la tierra(BI);
cantad alabanzas al Señor(BJ). (Selah)
33 Cantad al que cabalga(BK) sobre los cielos de los cielos(BL), que son desde la antigüedad;
he aquí, Él da su voz(BM), voz poderosa(BN).
34 Atribuid a Dios fortaleza[an](BO);
su majestad es sobre Israel,
y su poder está en los cielos[ao](BP).
35 Imponente(BQ) eres, oh Dios, desde tu santuario[ap].
El Dios mismo de Israel da fortaleza y poder al pueblo(BR).
¡Bendito sea Dios(BS)!

Psalm 68
Complete Jewish Bible
68 (0) For the leader. A psalm of David. A song:
2 (1) Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered;
let those who hate him flee from his presence.
3 (2) Drive them away as smoke is driven away;
like wax melting in the presence of a fire,
let the wicked perish in the presence of God.
4 (3) But let the righteous rejoice and be glad in God’s presence;
yes, let them exult and rejoice.
5 (4) Sing to God, sing praises to his name;
extol him who rides on the clouds
by his name, Yah;
and be glad in his presence.
6 (5) God in his holy dwelling,
is a father to orphans and defender of widows.
7 (6) God gives homes to those who are alone
and leads prisoners out into prosperity.
But rebels must live in a parched wasteland.
8 (7) God, when you went out at the head of your people,
when you marched out through the wilderness, (Selah)
9 (8) the earth quaked, and rain poured from the sky,
at the presence of God.
Even Sinai [shook] at the presence of God,
the God of Isra’el.
10 (9) You rained down showers in plenty, God;
when your heritage was weary, you restored it.
11 (10) Your flock settled in it;
in your goodness, God, you provided for the poor.
12 (11) Adonai gives the command;
the women with the good news are a mighty army.
13 (12) Kings and their armies are fleeing, fleeing,
while the women at home divide the spoil.
14 (13) Even if you lie among the animal stalls,
there are wings of a dove covered with silver
and its plumes with green gold.
15 (14) When Shaddai scatters kings there,
snow falls on Tzalmon.
16 (15) You mighty mountain, Mount Bashan!
You rugged mountain, Mount Bashan!
17 (16) You rugged mountain, why look with envy
at the mountain God wants for his place to live?
Truly, Adonai will live there forever.
18 (17) God’s chariots are myriads, repeated thousands;
Adonai is among them as in Sinai, in holiness.
19 (18) After you went up into the heights,
you led captivity captive,
you took gifts among mankind,
yes, even among the rebels,
so that Yah, God, might live there.
20 (19) Blessed be Adonai!
Every day he bears our burden,
does God, our salvation. (Selah)
21 (20) Our God is a God who saves;
from Adonai Adonai comes escape from death.
22 (21) God will surely crush the heads of his enemies,
the hairy crowns of those who continue in their guilt.
23 (22) Adonai said, “I will bring them back from Bashan,
I will fetch [those rebels] even from the depths of the sea;
24 (23) so that you can wash your feet in their blood,
and your dogs’ tongues too can get their share from your foes.
25 (24) They see your processions, God,
the processions of my God, my king, in holiness.
26 (25) The singers are in front, the musicians last,
in the middle are girls playing tambourines.
27 (26) “In choruses, bless God, Adonai,
you whose source is Isra’el.”
28 (27) There is Binyamin, the youngest, at the head;
the princes of Y’hudah, crowding along;
the princes of Z’vulun; the princes of Naftali.
29 (28) God, summon your strength!
Use your strength, God, as you did for us before,
30 (29) from your temple in Yerushalayim,
where kings will bring tribute to you.
31 (30) Rebuke the wild beast of the reeds,
that herd of bulls with their calves, the peoples,
who ingratiate themselves with bars of silver;
let him scatter the peoples who take pleasure in fighting.
32 (31) Let envoys come from Egypt,
Let Ethiopia stretch out its hands to God.
33 (32) Sing to God, kingdoms of the earth!
Sing praises to Adonai, (Selah)
34 (33) to him who rides on the most ancient heavens.
Listen, as he utters his voice, a mighty voice!
35 (34) Acknowledge that strength belongs to God,
with his majesty over Isra’el and his strength in the skies.
36 (35) How awe-inspiring you are, God,
from your holy places,
the God of Isra’el, who gives strength
and power to the people.
Blessed be God!
Psalm 68
King James Version
Psalm 68
King James Version
68 Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.
2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
3 But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice.
4 Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name Jah, and rejoice before him.
5 A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
6 God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.
7 O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness; Selah:
8 The earth shook, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God: even Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9 Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, whereby thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.
10 Thy congregation hath dwelt therein: thou, O God, hast prepared of thy goodness for the poor.
11 The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.
12 Kings of armies did flee apace: and she that tarried at home divided the spoil.
13 Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.
14 When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as snow in Salmon.
15 The hill of God is as the hill of Bashan; an high hill as the hill of Bashan.
16 Why leap ye, ye high hills? this is the hill which God desireth to dwell in; yea, the Lord will dwell in it for ever.
17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place.
18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the Lord God might dwell among them.
19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah.
20 He that is our God is the God of salvation; and unto God the Lord belong the issues from death.
21 But God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses.
22 The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring my people again from the depths of the sea:
23 That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and the tongue of thy dogs in the same.
24 They have seen thy goings, O God; even the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.
25 The singers went before, the players on instruments followed after; among them were the damsels playing with timbrels.
26 Bless ye God in the congregations, even the Lord, from the fountain of Israel.
27 There is little Benjamin with their ruler, the princes of Judah and their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.
28 Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
29 Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
30 Rebuke the company of spearmen, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the people, till every one submit himself with pieces of silver: scatter thou the people that delight in war.
31 Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God.
32 Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; Selah:
33 To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, he doth send out his voice, and that a mighty voice.
34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds.
35 O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel is he that giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God.

Psalm 68[a]
For the director of music. Of David. A psalm. A song.
1 May God arise,(A) may his enemies be scattered;(B)
may his foes flee(C) before him.
2 May you blow them away like smoke—(D)
as wax melts(E) before the fire,
may the wicked perish(F) before God.
3 But may the righteous be glad
and rejoice(G) before God;
may they be happy and joyful.
4 Sing to God, sing in praise of his name,(H)
extol him who rides on the clouds[b](I);
rejoice before him—his name is the Lord.(J)
5 A father to the fatherless,(K) a defender of widows,(L)
is God in his holy dwelling.(M)
6 God sets the lonely(N) in families,[c](O)
he leads out the prisoners(P) with singing;
but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.(Q)
7 When you, God, went out(R) before your people,
when you marched through the wilderness,[d](S)
8 the earth shook,(T) the heavens poured down rain,(U)
before God, the One of Sinai,(V)
before God, the God of Israel.(W)
9 You gave abundant showers,(X) O God;
you refreshed your weary inheritance.
10 Your people settled in it,
and from your bounty,(Y) God, you provided(Z) for the poor.
11 The Lord announces the word,
and the women who proclaim it are a mighty throng:(AA)
12 “Kings and armies flee(AB) in haste;
the women at home divide the plunder.(AC)
13 Even while you sleep among the sheep pens,[e](AD)
the wings of my dove are sheathed with silver,
its feathers with shining gold.”
14 When the Almighty[f] scattered(AE) the kings in the land,
it was like snow fallen on Mount Zalmon.(AF)
15 Mount Bashan,(AG) majestic mountain,(AH)
Mount Bashan, rugged mountain,
16 why gaze in envy, you rugged mountain,
at the mountain where God chooses(AI) to reign,
where the Lord himself will dwell forever?(AJ)
17 The chariots(AK) of God are tens of thousands
and thousands of thousands;(AL)
the Lord has come from Sinai into his sanctuary.[g]
18 When you ascended(AM) on high,(AN)
you took many captives;(AO)
you received gifts from people,(AP)
even from[h] the rebellious(AQ)—
that you,[i] Lord God, might dwell there.
19 Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior,(AR)
who daily bears our burdens.(AS)
20 Our God is a God who saves;(AT)
from the Sovereign Lord comes escape from death.(AU)
21 Surely God will crush the heads(AV) of his enemies,
the hairy crowns of those who go on in their sins.
22 The Lord says, “I will bring them from Bashan;
I will bring them from the depths of the sea,(AW)
23 that your feet may wade in the blood of your foes,(AX)
while the tongues of your dogs(AY) have their share.”
24 Your procession, God, has come into view,
the procession of my God and King into the sanctuary.(AZ)
25 In front are the singers,(BA) after them the musicians;(BB)
with them are the young women playing the timbrels.(BC)
26 Praise God in the great congregation;(BD)
praise the Lord in the assembly of Israel.(BE)
27 There is the little tribe(BF) of Benjamin,(BG) leading them,
there the great throng of Judah’s princes,
and there the princes of Zebulun and of Naphtali.(BH)
28 Summon your power,(BI) God[j];
show us your strength,(BJ) our God, as you have done(BK) before.
29 Because of your temple at Jerusalem
kings will bring you gifts.(BL)
30 Rebuke the beast(BM) among the reeds,(BN)
the herd of bulls(BO) among the calves of the nations.
Humbled, may the beast bring bars of silver.
Scatter the nations(BP) who delight in war.(BQ)
31 Envoys will come from Egypt;(BR)
Cush[k](BS) will submit herself to God.
32 Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth,(BT)
sing praise(BU) to the Lord,
33 to him who rides(BV) across the highest heavens, the ancient heavens,
who thunders(BW) with mighty voice.(BX)
34 Proclaim the power(BY) of God,
whose majesty(BZ) is over Israel,
whose power is in the heavens.
35 You, God, are awesome(CA) in your sanctuary;(CB)
the God of Israel gives power and strength(CC) to his people.(CD)
Praise be to God!(CE)
