Psalms 68:27

25 ^aThe singers went before, the players on instruments followed after;
Among them were the maidens playing timbrels.

26 Bless God in the congregations,
The Lord, from ^athe fountain of Israel.

27 ^aThere is little Benjamin, their leader,
The princes of Judah and their¹ company,
The princes of Zebulun and the princes of Naphtali.

28 Your God has ^acommanded your strength;
Strengthen, O God, what You have done for us.

29 Because of Your temple at Jerusalem,
^aKings will bring presents to You.

30 Rebuke the beasts of the reeds,
^aThe herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples,
Till everyone ^bsubmits himself with pieces of silver.
Scatter the peoples who delight in war.

John Wesley's Notes

<< Psalms 68:26

Psalms 68:28 >>

There is - Present in this solemn pomp of carrying the ark to Zion. Little - Called little, because it was exceedingly diminished, and almost extinguished under the Judges, Judges 20:35, Judges 21:3 etc. Ruler - The tribe which had lately swayed the scepter, but now submitted to David. Company - The people of that tribe who waited upon them. Zebulun, etc. - He mentions these tribes, because they lived in the remotest parts of the land of Canaan. And so by naming two of the nearest tribes, and two of the farthest, he intimates that the other tribes also came upon this occasion, as is manifest from II Samuel 6:15-19.
