Psalms 68:13
Compare all
11 The Lord gave the word;
Great was the1 company of those who proclaimed it: 
12 “Kingsa of armies flee, they flee,
And she who remains at home divides the1 spoil. 
13 aThough you lie down among the1 sheepfolds,
bYou will be like the wings of a dove covered with silver,
And her feathers with yellow gold.” 
14 aWhen the Almighty scattered kings in it,
It was white as snow in Zalmon. 
15 A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan;
A mountain of many peaks is the mountain of Bashan.
16 Why do you1 fume with envy, you mountains of many peaks?
aThis is the mountain which God desires to dwell in;
Yes, the Lord will dwell in it forever.
