O God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the wasteland, Selah,

You ascended on high, you led captives in your train; you received gifts among men, even from the rebellious, that the LORD God might dwell there.
Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burdens, the God of our salvation. Selah.
Our God is a God who saves; from the Lord GOD comes escape from death.
But God will crush the heads of his enemies, the hairy crown of those who walk on in their guilt.
The Lord said, "I will bring them back from Bashan, I will bring them back from the depths of the sea,
so that you may bathe your feet in blood, and the tongues of your dogs may have their share of the enemy."

The singers go in front, the musicians last, between them the young women playing tambourines.
Bless God in the great congregation—the LORD, you who spring from the fountain of Israel!
There is little Benjamin, leading them, the princes of Judah in their throng, the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.
Your God has decreed your strength; show your power, O God, as you have done for us before.
Because of your temple at Jerusalem, kings will bring you gifts.

Kingdoms of the earth, sing to God; sing praises to the Lord, Selah,
to him who rides on the ancient heaven of heavens; behold, he thunders with his voice, a mighty voice.
Ascribe power to God, whose majesty is over Israel and whose strength is in the skies.
Awesome are you, O God, from your sanctuary; the God of Israel—he gives power and strength to the people. Blessed be God!
