| [1]To the Overseer. -- A Psalm, a song of David. Rise doth God -- scattered are His enemies! And those hating Him flee from His face. |
[1]God will arise, and his enemies shall be scattered: they also that hate him, shall flee before him. |
| [2]As the driving away of smoke Thou drivest away, As the melting of wax before fire, The wicked perish at the presence of God. |
[2]As the smoke vanisheth, so shalt thou drive them away: and as wax melteth before the fire, so shall the wicked perish at the presence of God. |
| [3]And the righteous rejoice, they exult before God, And they joy with gladness. |
[3]But the righteous shall be glad , and rejoice before God: yea, they shall leap for joy. |
| [4]Sing ye to God -- praise His name, Raise up a highway for Him who is riding in deserts, In Jah [is] His name, and exult before Him. |
[4]Sing unto God , and sing praises unto his name: exalt him, that rideth upon the heavens, in his Name Jah, and rejoice before him. |
| [5]Father of the fatherless, and judge of the widows, [Is] God in His holy habitation. |
[5]He is a father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, even God in his holy habitation. |
| [6]God -- causing the lonely to dwell at home, Bringing out bound ones into prosperity, Only -- the refractory have inhabited a dry place. |
[6]God maketh the solitary to dwell in families, and delivereth them that were prisoners in stocks: but the rebellious shall dwell in a dry land. |
| [7]O God, in Thy going forth before Thy people, In Thy stepping through the wilderness, Selah. |
[7]O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people: when thou wentest through the wilderness, (Selah) |
| [8]The earth hath shaken, Yea, the heavens have dropped before God, This Sinai -- before God, the God of Israel. |
[8]The earth shook, and the heavens dropped at the presence of this God: even Sinai was moved at the presence of God, even the God of Israel. |
| [9]A shower of free-will gifts thou shakest out, O God. Thine inheritance, when it hath been weary, Thou hast established it. |
[9]Thou, O God, sendest a gracious rain upon thine inheritance, and thou didst refresh it when it was weary. |
| [10]Thy company have dwelt in it, Thou preparest in Thy goodness for the poor, O God. |
[10]Thy congregation dwelled therein: for thou, O God, hast of thy goodness prepared it for the poor. |
| [11]The Lord doth give the saying, The female proclaimers [are] a numerous host. |
[11]The Lord gave matter to the women to tell of the great army. |
| [12]Kings of hosts flee utterly away, And a female inhabitant of the house apportioneth spoil. |
[12]Kings of the armies did flee: they did flee and she that remained in the house, divided the spoil. |
| [13]Though ye do lie between two boundaries, Wings of a dove covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow gold. |
[13]Though ye have lien among pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove that is covered with silver, and whose feathers are like yellow gold. |
| [14]When the Mighty spreadeth kings in it, It doth snow in Salmon. |
[14]When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as the snow in Zalmon. |
| [15]A hill of God [is] the hill of Bashan, A hill of heights [is] the hill of Bashan. |
[15]The mountain of God is like the mountain of Bashan: it is an high mountain, as mount Bashan. |
| [16]Why do ye envy, O high hills, The hill God hath desired for His seat? Jehovah also doth tabernacle for ever. |
[16]Why leap ye, ye high mountains? As for this mountain, God delighteth to dwell in it: yea, the Lord will dwell in it forever. |
| [17]The chariots of God [are] myriads, thousands of changes, The Lord [is] among them, in Sinai, in the sanctuary. |
[17]The chariots of God are twenty thousand thousand angels, and the Lord is among them, as in the Sanctuary of Sinai. |
| [18]Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast taken captive captivity, Thou hast taken gifts for men, That even the refractory may rest, O Jah God. |
[18]Thou art gone up on high: thou hast led captivity captive, and received gifts for men: yea, even the rebellious hast thou led, that the Lord God might dwell there. |
| [19]Blessed [is] the Lord, day by day He layeth on us. God Himself [is] our salvation. Selah. |
[19]Praised be the Lord, even the God of our salvation, which loadeth us daily with benefits. Selah. |
| [20]God Himself [is] to us a God for deliverances, And Jehovah Lord hath the outgoings of death. |
[20]This is our God, even the God that saveth us: and to the Lord God belong the issues of death. |
| [21]Only -- God doth smite The head of His enemies, The hairy crown of a habitual walker in his guilt. |
[21]Surely God will wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy pate of him that walketh in his sins. |
| [22]The Lord said: `From Bashan I bring back, I bring back from the depths of the sea. |
[22]The Lord hath said, I will bring my people again from Bashan: I will bring them again from the depths of the sea: |
| [23]So that thou dashest thy foot in blood, [In the blood of] enemies -- the tongue of Thy dogs.' |
[23]That thy foot may be dipped in blood, and the tongue of thy dogs in the blood of the enemies, even in it. |
| [24]They have seen Thy goings, O God, Goings of my God, my king, in the sanctuary. |
[24]They have seen, O God, thy goings, the goings of my God, and my King, which art in the sanctuary. |
| [25]Singers have been before, Behind [are] players on instruments, In the midst virgins playing with timbrels. |
[25]The singers went before, the players of instruments after: in the midst were the maids playing with timbrels. |
| [26]In assemblies bless ye God, The Lord -- from the fountain of Israel. |
[26]Praise ye God in the assemblies, and the Lord, ye that are of the fountain of Israel. |
| [27]There [is] little Benjamin their ruler, Heads of Judah their defence, Heads of Zebulun -- heads of Naphtali. |
[27]There was little Benjamin with their ruler, and the princes of Judah with their assembly, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali. |
| [28]Thy God hath commanded thy strength, Be strong, O God, this Thou hast wrought for us. |
[28]Thy God hath appointed thy strength: establish, O God, that, which thou hast wrought in us, |
| [29]Because of Thy temple at Jerusalem, To Thee do kings bring a present. |
[29]Out of thy temple upon Jerusalem: and kings shall bring presents unto thee. |
| [30]Rebuke a beast of the reeds, a company of bulls, With calves of the peoples, Each humbling himself with pieces of silver, Scatter Thou peoples delighting in conflicts. |
[30]Destroy the company of the spear men, and multitude of the mighty bulls with the calves of the people, that tread under feet pieces of silver: scatter the people that delight in war. |
| [31]Come do fat ones out of Egypt, Cush causeth her hands to run to God. |
[31]Then shall the princes come out of Egypt: Ethiopia shall haste to stretch her hands unto God. |
| [32]Kingdoms of the earth, sing ye to God, Praise ye the Lord. Selah. |
[32]Sing unto God, O ye kingdoms of the earth: sing praise unto the Lord, (Selah) |
| [33]To him who is riding on the heavens of the heavens of old, Lo, He giveth with His voice a strong voice. |
[33]To him that rideth upon the most high heavens, which were from the beginning: behold, he will send out by his voice a mighty sound. |
| [34]Ascribe ye strength to God, Over Israel [is] His excellency, and His strength in the clouds. |
[34]Ascribe the power of God: for his majesty is upon Israel, and his strength is in the clouds. |
| [35]Fearful, O God, out of Thy sanctuaries, The God of Israel Himself, Giving strength and might to the people. Blessed [is] God! |
[35]O God, thou art terrible out of thine holy places: the God of Israel is he that giveth strength and power unto the people: praised be God. |
