Psalms 68:1--70:5

68:1

<
<To the chief Musician <05329> (8764)_,

A Psalm
<04210>

[or] Song
<07892>

of David
<01732>.>>

Let God
<0430>

arise
<06965> (8799)_,

let his enemies
<0341> (8802)

be scattered
<06327> (8799)_:

let them also that hate
<08130> (8764)

him flee
<05127> (8799)

before
<06440>

him. {before...: Heb. from his face}

68:2

As smoke
<06227>

is driven away
<05086> (8736)_,

[so] drive [them] away
<05086> (8799)_:

as wax
<01749>

melteth
<04549> (8736)

before
<06440>

the fire
<0784>_,

[so] let the wicked
<07563>

perish
<06> (8799)

at the presence
<06440>

of God
<0430>_.

68:3

But let the righteous
<06662>

be glad
<08055> (8799)_;

let them rejoice
<05970> (8799)

before
<06440>

God
<0430>_:

yea, let them exceedingly
<08057>

rejoice
<07797> (8799)_.

{exceedingly...: Heb. rejoice with gladness}

68:4

Sing
<07891> (8798)

unto God
<0430>_,

sing praises
<02167> (8761)

to his name
<08034>_:

extol
<05549> (8798)

him that rideth
<07392> (8802)

upon the heavens
<06160>

by his name
<08034>

JAH
<03050>_,

and rejoice
<05937> (8798)

before
<06440>

him.

68:5

A father
<01>

of the fatherless
<03490>_,

and a judge
<01781>

of the widows
<0490>_,

[is] God
<0430>

in his holy
<06944>

habitation
<04583>_.

68:6

God
<0430>

setteth
<03427> (8688)

the solitary
<03173>

in families
<01004>_:

he bringeth out
<03318> (8688)

those which are bound
<0615>

with chains
<03574>_:

but the rebellious
<05637> (8802)

dwell
<07931> (8804)

in a dry
<06707>

[land]. {in families: Heb. in a house}

68:7

O God
<0430>_,

when thou wentest forth
<03318> (8800)

before
<06440>

thy people
<05971>_,

when thou didst march
<06805> (8800)

through the wilderness
<03452>_;

Selah
<05542>_:

68:8

The earth
<0776>

shook
<07493> (8804)_,

the heavens
<08064>

also dropped
<05197> (8804)

at the presence
<06440>

of God
<0430>_:

[even] Sinai
<05514>

itself
<02088>

[was moved] at the presence
<06440>

of God
<0430>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_.

68:9

Thou, O God
<0430>_,

didst send
<05130> (8686)

a plentiful
<05071>

rain
<01653>_,

whereby thou didst confirm
<03559> (8790)

thine inheritance
<05159>_,

when it was weary
<03811> (8738)_.

{send: Heb. shake out} {confirm: Heb. confirm it}

68:10

Thy congregation
<02416>

hath dwelt
<03427> (8804)

therein: thou, O God
<0430>_,

hast prepared
<03559> (8686)

of thy goodness
<02896>

for the poor
<06041>_.

68:11

The Lord
<0136>

gave
<05414> (8799)

the word
<0562>_:

great
<07227>

[was] the company
<06635>

of those that published
<01319> (8764)

[it]. {company: Heb. army}

68:12

Kings
<04428>

of armies
<06635>

did flee
<05074> (8799)

apace
<05074> (8799)_:

and she that tarried
<05116>

at home
<01004>

divided
<02505> (8762)

the spoil
<07998>_.

{did...: Heb. did flee, did flee}

68:13

Though ye have lien
<07901> (8799)

among the pots
<08240>_,

[yet shall ye be as] the wings
<03671>

of a dove
<03123>

covered
<02645> (8737)

with silver
<03701>_,

and her feathers
<084>

with yellow
<03422>

gold
<02742>_.

68:14

When the Almighty
<07706>

scattered
<06566> (8763)

kings
<04428>

in it, it was [white] as snow
<07949> (8686)

in Salmon
<06756>_.

{in it...: or, for her, she}

68:15

The hill
<02022>

of God
<0430>

[is as] the hill
<02022>

of Bashan
<01316>_;

an high
<01386>

hill
<02022>

[as] the hill
<02022>

of Bashan
<01316>_.

68:16

Why leap
<07520> (8762)

ye, ye high
<01386>

hills
<02022>_?

[this is] the hill
<02022>

[which] God
<0430>

desireth
<02530> (8804)

to dwell in
<03427> (8800)_;

yea, the LORD
<03068>

will dwell
<07931> (8799)

[in it] for ever
<05331>_.

68:17

The chariots
<07393>

of God
<0430>

[are] twenty thousand
<07239>_,

[even] thousands
<0505>

of angels
<08136>_:

the Lord
<0136>

[is] among them, [as in] Sinai
<05514>_,

in the holy
<06944>

[place]. {even...: or, even many thousands}

68:18

Thou hast ascended
<05927> (8804)

on high
<04791>_,

thou hast led captivity
<07628>

captive
<07617> (8804)_:

thou hast received
<03947> (8804)

gifts
<04979>

for men
<0120>_;

yea, [for] the rebellious
<05637> (8802)

also, that the LORD
<03050>

God
<0430>

might dwell
<07931> (8800)

[among them]. {for men: Heb. in the man}

68:19

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] the Lord
<0136>_,

[who] daily
<03117> <03117>

loadeth
<06006> (8799)

us [with benefits, even] the God
<0410>

of our salvation
<03444>_.

Selah
<05542>_.

68:20

[He that is] our God
<0410>

[is] the God
<0410>

of salvation
<04190>_;

and unto GOD
<03069>

the Lord
<0136>

[belong] the issues
<08444>

from death
<04194>_.

68:21

But God
<0430>

shall wound
<04272> (8799)

the head
<07218>

of his enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

[and] the hairy
<08181>

scalp
<06936>

of such an one as goeth on still
<01980> (8693)

in his trespasses
<0817>_.

68:22

The Lord
<0136>

said
<0559> (8804)_,

I will bring again
<07725> (8686)

from Bashan
<01316>_,

I will bring [my people] again
<07725> (8686)

from the depths
<04688>

of the sea
<03220>_:

68:23

That thy foot
<07272>

may be dipped
<04272> (8799)

in the blood
<01818>

of [thine] enemies
<0341> (8802)_,

[and] the tongue
<03956>

of thy dogs
<03611>

in the same. {dipped: or, red}

68:24

They have seen
<07200> (8804)

thy goings
<01979>_,

O God
<0430>_;

[even] the goings
<01979>

of my God
<0410>_,

my King
<04428>_,

in the sanctuary
<06944>_.

68:25

The singers
<07891> (8802)

went before
<06923> (8765)_,

the players on instruments
<05059> (8802)

[followed] after
<0310>_;

among
<08432>

[them were] the damsels
<05959>

playing with timbrels
<08608> (8802)_.

68:26

Bless
<01288> (8761)

ye God
<0430>

in the congregations
<04721>_,

[even] the Lord
<0136>_,

from the fountain
<04726>

of Israel
<03478>_.

{from...: or, ye that are of the fountain of Israel}

68:27

There [is] little
<06810>

Benjamin
<01144>

[with] their ruler
<07287> (8802)_,

the princes
<08269>

of Judah
<03063>

[and] their council
<07277>_,

the princes
<08269>

of Zebulun
<02074>_,

[and] the princes
<08269>

of Naphtali
<05321>_.

{and their...: or, with their company}

68:28

Thy God
<0430>

hath commanded
<06680> (8765)

thy strength
<05797>_:

strengthen
<05810> (8798)_,

O God
<0430>_,

that which
<02098>

thou hast wrought
<06466> (8804)

for us.

68:29

Because of thy temple
<01964>

at Jerusalem
<03389>

shall kings
<04428>

bring
<02986> (8686)

presents
<07862>

unto thee.

68:30

Rebuke
<01605> (8798)

the company
<02416>

of spearmen
<07070>_,

the multitude
<05712>

of the bulls
<047>_,

with the calves
<05695>

of the people
<05971>_,

[till every one] submit
<07511> (8693)

himself with pieces
<07518>

of silver
<03701>_:

scatter
<0967> (8765)

thou the people
<05971>

[that] delight
<02654> (8799)

in war
<07128>_.

{the company...: or, the beasts of the reeds} {scatter...: or, he scattereth}

68:31

Princes
<02831>

shall come out
<0857> (8799)

of Egypt
<04714>_;

Ethiopia
<03568>

shall soon stretch out
<07323> (8686)

her hands
<03027>

unto God
<0430>_.

68:32

Sing
<07891> (8798)

unto God
<0430>_,

ye kingdoms
<04467>

of the earth
<0776>_;

O sing praises
<02167> (8761)

unto the Lord
<0136>_;

Selah
<05542>_:

68:33

To him that rideth
<07392> (8802)

upon the heavens
<08064>

of heavens
<08064>_,

[which were] of old
<06924>_;

lo, he doth send out
<05414> (8799)

his voice
<06963>_,

[and that] a mighty
<05797>

voice
<06963>_.

{send...: Heb. give}

68:34

Ascribe
<05414> (8798)

ye strength
<05797>

unto God
<0430>_:

his excellency
<01346>

[is] over Israel
<03478>_,

and his strength
<05797>

[is] in the clouds
<07834>_.

{clouds: or, heavens}

68:35

O God
<0430>_,

[thou art] terrible
<03372> (8737)

out of thy holy places
<04720>_:

the God
<0410>

of Israel
<03478>

[is] he that giveth
<05414> (8802)

strength
<05797>

and power
<08592>

unto [his] people
<05971>_.

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] God
<0430>_.

69:1

<
<To the chief Musician <05329> (8764)

upon Shoshannim
<07799>_,

[A Psalm] of David
<01732>.>>

Save
<03467> (8685)

me, O God
<0430>_;

for the waters
<04325>

are come
<0935> (8804)

in unto [my] soul
<05315>_.

69:2

I sink
<02883> (8804)

in deep
<04688>

mire
<03121>_,

where [there is] no standing
<04613>_:

I am come
<0935> (8804)

into deep
<04615>

waters
<04325>_,

where the floods
<07641>

overflow
<07857> (8804)

me. {deep mire: Heb. the mire of depth} {deep waters: Heb. depth of waters}

69:3

I am weary
<03021> (8804)

of my crying
<07121> (8800)_:

my throat
<01627>

is dried
<02787> (8738)_:

mine eyes
<05869>

fail
<03615> (8804)

while I wait
<03176> (8764)

for my God
<0430>_.

69:4

They that hate
<08130> (8802)

me without a cause
<02600>

are more
<07231> (8804)

than the hairs
<08185>

of mine head
<07218>_:

they that would destroy
<06789> (8688)

me, [being] mine enemies
<0341> (8802)

wrongfully
<08267>_,

are mighty
<06105> (8804)_:

then I restored
<07725> (8686)

[that] which I took not away
<01497> (8804)_.

69:5

O God
<0430>_,

thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

my foolishness
<0200>_;

and my sins
<0819>

are not hid
<03582> (8738)

from thee. {sins: Heb. guiltiness}

69:6

Let not them that wait
<06960> (8802)

on thee, O Lord
<0136>

GOD
<03069>

of hosts
<06635>_,

be ashamed
<0954> (8799)

for my sake: let not those that seek
<01245> (8764)

thee be confounded
<03637> (8735)

for my sake, O God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_.

69:7

Because for thy sake I have borne
<05375> (8804)

reproach
<02781>_;

shame
<03639>

hath covered
<03680> (8765)

my face
<06440>_.

69:8

I am become a stranger
<02114> (8716)

unto my brethren
<0251>_,

and an alien
<05237>

unto my mother's
<0517>

children
<01121>_.

69:9

For the zeal
<07068>

of thine house
<01004>

hath eaten me up
<0398> (8804)_;

and the reproaches
<02781>

of them that reproached
<02778> (8802)

thee are fallen
<05307> (8804)

upon me.

69:10

When I wept
<01058> (8799)_,

[and chastened] my soul
<05315>

with fasting
<06685>_,

that was to my reproach
<02781>_.

69:11

I made
<05414> (8799)

sackcloth
<08242>

also my garment
<03830>_;

and I became a proverb
<04912>

to them.

69:12

They that sit in
<03427> (8802)

the gate
<08179>

speak
<07878> (8799)

against me; and I [was] the song
<05058>

of the drunkards
<08354> (8802) <07941>_.

{drunkards: Heb. drinkers of strong drink}

69:13

But as for me, my prayer
<08605>

[is] unto thee, O LORD
<03068>_,

[in] an acceptable
<07522>

time
<06256>_:

O God
<0430>_,

in the multitude
<07230>

of thy mercy
<02617>

hear
<06030> (8798)

me, in the truth
<0571>

of thy salvation
<03468>_.

69:14

Deliver
<05337> (8685)

me out of the mire
<02916>_,

and let me not sink
<02883> (8799)_:

let me be delivered
<05337> (8735)

from them that hate
<08130> (8802)

me, and out of the deep
<04615>

waters
<04325>_.

69:15

Let not the waterflood
<04325> <07641>

overflow
<07857> (8799)

me, neither let the deep
<04688>

swallow me up
<01104> (8799)_,

and let not the pit
<0875>

shut
<0332> (8799)

her mouth
<06310>

upon me.

69:16

Hear
<06030> (8798)

me, O LORD
<03068>_;

for thy lovingkindness
<02617>

[is] good
<02896>_:

turn
<06437> (8798)

unto me according to the multitude
<07230>

of thy tender mercies
<07356>_.

69:17

And hide
<05641> (8686)

not thy face
<06440>

from thy servant
<05650>_;

for I am in trouble
<06887> (8804)_:

hear
<06030> (8798)

me speedily
<04118>_.

{hear...: Heb. make haste to hear me}

69:18

Draw nigh
<07126> (8798)

unto my soul
<05315>_,

[and] redeem
<01350> (8798)

it: deliver
<06299> (8798)

me because of mine enemies
<0341> (8802)_.

69:19

Thou hast known
<03045> (8804)

my reproach
<02781>_,

and my shame
<01322>_,

and my dishonour
<03639>_:

mine adversaries
<06887> (8802)

[are] all before thee.

69:20

Reproach
<02781>

hath broken
<07665> (8804)

my heart
<03820>_;

and I am full of heaviness
<05136> (8799)_:

and I looked
<06960> (8762)

[for some] to take pity
<05110> (8800)_,

but [there was] none; and for comforters
<05162> (8764)_,

but I found
<04672> (8804)

none. {to take...: Heb. to lament with me}

69:21

They gave
<05414> (8799)

me also gall
<07219>

for my meat
<01267>_;

and in my thirst
<06772>

they gave me vinegar
<02558>

to drink
<08248> (8686)_.

69:22

Let their table
<07979>

become a snare
<06341>

before
<06440>

them: and [that which should have been] for [their] welfare
<07965>_,

[let it become] a trap
<04170>_.

69:23

Let their eyes
<05869>

be darkened
<02821> (8799)_,

that they see
<07200> (8800)

not; and make their loins
<04975>

continually
<08548>

to shake
<04571> (8685)_.

69:24

Pour out
<08210> (8798)

thine indignation
<02195>

upon them, and let thy wrathful
<02740>

anger
<0639>

take hold
<05381> (8686)

of them.

69:25

Let their habitation
<02918>

be desolate
<08074> (8737)_;

[and] let none dwell
<03427> (8802)

in their tents
<0168>_.

{their habitation: Heb. their palace} {let none...: Heb. let there not be a dweller}

69:26

For they persecute
<07291> (8804)

[him] whom thou hast smitten
<05221> (8689)_;

and they talk
<05608> (8762)

to the grief
<04341>

of those whom thou hast wounded
<02491>_.

{those...: Heb. thy wounded}

69:27

Add
<05414> (8798)

iniquity
<05771>

unto their iniquity
<05771>_:

and let them not come
<0935> (8799)

into thy righteousness
<06666>_.

{iniquity unto...: or, punishment of iniquity, etc}

69:28

Let them be blotted
<04229> (8735)

out of the book
<05612>

of the living
<02416>_,

and not be written
<03789> (8735)

with the righteous
<06662>_.

69:29

But I [am] poor
<06041>

and sorrowful
<03510> (8802)_:

let thy salvation
<03444>_,

O God
<0430>_,

set me up on high
<07682> (8762)_.

69:30

I will praise
<01984> (8762)

the name
<08034>

of God
<0430>

with a song
<07892>_,

and will magnify
<01431> (8762)

him with thanksgiving
<08426>_.

69:31

[This] also shall please
<03190> (0)

the LORD
<03068>

better
<03190> (8799)

than an ox
<07794>

[or] bullock
<06499>

that hath horns
<07160> (8688)

and hoofs
<06536> (8688)_.

69:32

The humble
<06035>

shall see
<07200> (8804)

[this, and] be glad
<08055> (8799)_:

and your heart
<03824>

shall live
<02421> (8799)

that seek
<01875> (8802)

God
<0430>_.

{humble: or, meek}

69:33

For the LORD
<03068>

heareth
<08085> (8802)

the poor
<034>_,

and despiseth
<0959> (8804)

not his prisoners
<0615>_.

69:34

Let the heaven
<08064>

and earth
<0776>

praise
<01984> (8762)

him, the seas
<03220>_,

and every thing that moveth
<07430> (8802)

therein. {moveth: Heb. creepeth}

69:35

For God
<0430>

will save
<03467> (8686)

Zion
<06726>_,

and will build
<01129> (8799)

the cities
<05892>

of Judah
<03063>_:

that they may dwell
<03427> (8804)

there, and have it in possession
<03423> (8804)_.

69:36

The seed
<02233>

also of his servants
<05650>

shall inherit
<05157> (8799)

it: and they that love
<0157> (8802)

his name
<08034>

shall dwell
<07931> (8799)

therein.

70:1

<
<To the chief Musician <05329> (8764)_,

[A Psalm] of David
<01732>_,

to bring to remembrance
<02142> (8687).>>

[Make haste], O God
<0430>_,

to deliver
<05337> (8687)

me; make haste
<02363> (8798)

to help
<05833>

me, O LORD
<03068>_.

{to help...: Heb. to my help}

70:2

Let them be ashamed
<0954> (8799)

and confounded
<02659> (8799)

that seek
<01245> (8764)

after my soul
<05315>_:

let them be turned
<05472> (8735)

backward
<0268>_,

and put to confusion
<03637> (8735)_,

that desire
<02655>

my hurt
<07451>_.

70:3

Let them be turned back
<07725> (8799)

for a reward
<06118>

of their shame
<01322>

that say
<0559> (8802)_,

Aha
<01889>_,

aha
<01889>_.

70:4

Let all those that seek
<01245> (8764)

thee rejoice
<07797> (8799)

and be glad
<08055> (8799)

in thee: and let such as love
<0157> (8802)

thy salvation
<03444>

say
<0559> (8799)

continually
<08548>_,

Let God
<0430>

be magnified
<01431> (8799)_.

70:5

But I [am] poor
<06041>

and needy
<034>_:

make haste
<02363> (8798)

unto me, O God
<0430>_:

thou [art] my help
<05828>

and my deliverer
<06403> (8764)_;

O LORD
<03068>_,

make no tarrying
<0309> (8762)_.
