Psalms 68:16-21 New English Translation (NET)

16. Why do you look with envy, O mountains with many peaks,at the mountain where God has decided to live?Indeed the Lord will live there permanently!

17. God has countless chariots;they number in the thousands.The Lord comes from Sinai in holy splendor.

18. You ascend on high,you have taken many captives.You receive tribute from men,including even sinful rebels.Indeed the Lord God lives there!

19. The Lord deserves praise!Day after day he carries our burden,the God who delivers us. (Selah)

20. Our God is a God who delivers;the Lord, the sovereign Lord, can rescue from death.

21. Indeed God strikes the heads of his enemies,the hairy foreheads of those who persist in rebellion.
