Psalms 68:22-29 Common English Bible (CEB)

22. My Lord has spoken:"From Bashan I will bring those people back.I will bring them back from the ocean’s depths

23. so that you can wash your feet in their blood,so that your dogs’ tonguescan lap up their share of your enemies."

24. They saw your procession, God—the procession of my God,my king, into the sanctuary.

25. First came the singers,then the musicians;between them the young womenwere playing hand drums:

26. "Bless God in the great congregation;bless the Lord from Israel’s fountain!"

27. There’s Benjamin leading them,though he’s little;then the princes of Judah,their speaker;then the princes of Zebulunand the princes of Naphtali.

28. Summon your strength, God!Show how strong you are, God,just as you’ve done for us before,

29. from your temple above Jerusalem,where kings bring you gifts.
