Let God arise, and let his enemies be scattered;
let them
also that hate him flee before him.
Like as the smoke vanisheth,
so shalt thou drive them away;
and like as wax melteth at
the fire, so let the ungodly perish at the presence of God.
But
let the righteous be glad, and rejoice before God;
let them
also be merry and joyful.
O sing unto God, and sing praises unto his Name;

him that rideth upon the heavens, as it were upon a horse.

He is the God that maketh men to be of one mind in an house, and bringeth the prisoners out of captivity, but letteth the runagates continue in scarceness.

congregation shall dwell therein;
for thou, O God, hast of
thy goodness prepared for the poor.
The Lord gave the word;
great was the company of the
preachers.

As the hill of Bashan, so is God’s hill, even an high hill, as the hill of Bashan.

Yea, the Lord will abide in it for ever.
The chariots of God are twenty
thousand, even thousands of angels;
and the Lord is among
them, as in the holy place of Sinai.
Thou art gone up on high;
thou hast led captivity captive, and received gifts for men,
yea, even for thine enemies, that the Lord God might dwell
among them.
Praised be the Lord daily, even the God who helpeth us, and poureth his benefits upon us.
He is our God, even the
God of whom cometh salvation;
God is the Lord, by whom
we escape death.
God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of such a one as goeth on still in his wickedness.
The Lord hath said, I will bring my people again, as
I did from Bashan;
mine own will I bring again, as I did
sometimes from the deep of the sea, that thy foot may be
dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and that the tongue of
thy dogs may be red through the same.

stablish the
thing, O God, that thou hast wrought in us, for thy temple’s
sake at Jerusalem;
so shall kings bring presents unto thee.

O scatter thou the people that delight in war.
Then shall the princes come out of Egypt.
The Morians’
land shall soon stretch out her hands
unto God.
Sing unto God, O ye kingdoms of the earth;
O sing praises
unto the Lord, who sitteth in the heavens over all from the
beginning.
Lo, he doth send out his voice, yea, and that a mighty voice.
Ascribe ye the power to God over Israel;
his
worship and strength is in the clouds.
O God, wonderful art
thou in thy holy places, even the God of Israel;
he will give
strength and power unto his people.
Blessed be God.
