Chapter 67

The glorious establishment of the Church of the New Testament, prefigured by the benefits bestowed on the people of Israel.

1. 1

   Unto the end, a psalm of a canticle for David himself.

2. 2

   Let God arise, and let his enemies be scattered: and let them that hate him flee from before his face.

3. 3

   As smoke vanisheth, so let them vanish away; as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

4. 4

   And let the just feast, and rejoice before God: and be delighted with gladness.

5. 5

   Sing ye to God, sing a psalm to his name: make a way for him who ascendeth upon the west: the Lord is his name.

6. 7

   God who maketh men of one manner to dwell in a house:

7. 8

   O God, when thou didst go forth in the sight of thy people, when thou didst pass through the desert:

8. 9

   The earth was moved, and the heavens dropped at the presence of the God of Sinai, at the presence of the God of Israel.

9. 10

   Thou shalt set aside for thy inheritance a free rain, O God: and it was weakened, but thou hast made it perfect.

10. 11

    In it shall thy animals dwell; in thy sweetness, O God, thou hast provided for the poor.

11. 12

    The Lord shall give the word to them that preach good tidings with great power.

12. 13

    The king of powers is of the beloved, of the beloved; and the beauty of the house shall divide spoils.

13. 14

    If you sleep among the midst of lots, you shall be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and the hinder parts of her back with the paleness of gold.

14. 15

    When he that is in heaven appointeth kings over her, they shall be whited with snow in Selmon.

15. 16

    The mountain of God is a fat mountain.

16. 18

    The chariot of God is attended by ten thousands; thousands of them that rejoice: the Lord is among them in Sinai, in the holy place.

17. 19

    Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive; thou hast received gifts in men.

18. 20

    Blessed be the Lord day by day: the God of our salvation will make our journey prosperous to us.

19. 21

    Our God is the God of salvation: and of the Lord, of the Lord are the issues from death.

20. 22

    But God shall break the heads of his enemies: the hairy crown of them that walk on in their sins.

21. 23

    The Lord said: I will turn them from Basan, I will turn them into the depth of the sea.

22. 24

    That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thy enemies: the tongue of thy dogs be red with the same.

23. 25

    They have seen thy goings, O God, the goings of my God: of my king who is in his sanctuary.

24. 26

    Princes went before joined with singers, in the midst of young damsels playing on timbrels.

25. 27

    In the churches bless ye God the Lord, from the fountains of Israel.

26. 28

    There is Benjamin a youth, in ecstacy of mind.

27. 29

    Command thy strength, O God: confirm, O God, what thou hast wrought in us.

28. 30

    From thy temple in Jerusalem, kings shall offer presents to thee.

29. 31

    Rebuke the wild beasts of the reeds, the congregation of bulls, with the kine of the people; who seek to exclude them who are tried with silver.

30. 33

    Sing to God, ye kingdoms of the earth: sing ye to the Lord:

31. 36

    God is wonderful in his saints: the God of Israel is he who will give power and strength to his people. Blessed be God.
