Psalms 68:10

Psalms 68:10

8 The earth shook;
The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God;
Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

9 ^aYou, O God, sent a plentiful rain,
Whereby You confirmed Your inheritance,
When it was weary.

10 Your congregation dwelt in it;
^aYou, O God, provided from Your goodness for the poor.

11 The Lord gave the word;
Great was the¹ company of those who proclaimed it:

12 “Kings^a of armies flee, they flee,
And she who remains at home divides the¹ spoil.
