Salmos 68
La Sainte Bible (Ostervald)
1Que Dieu se lève, et ses ennemis seront dispersés, et ceux qui le haïssent s'enfuiront devant lui.
2Tu les dissiperas comme la fumée se dissipe; comme la cire se fond au feu, ainsi périront les méchants devant Dieu.
3Mais les justes se réjouiront, ils triompheront devant Dieu, et tressailleront de joie.
4Chantez à Dieu, célébrez son nom, préparez le chemin à celui qui s'avance dans les plaines! L'Éternel est son nom; réjouissez-vous devant lui!
5Le père des orphelins et le défenseur des veuves, c'est Dieu, dans sa demeure sainte.
6Dieu fait habiter en famille ceux qui étaient seuls; il délivre les captifs, et les met au large; mais les rebelles demeurent dans des lieux arides.
7O Dieu, quand tu sortis devant ton peuple, quand tu marchas dans le désert, - Sélah (pause), -
8La terre trembla, les cieux mêmes se fondirent en eau devant Dieu; le Sinaï même trembla devant Dieu, le Dieu d'Israël.
9Tu répandis une pluie bienfaisante, ô Dieu; tu rendis la force à ton héritage épuisé.
10Ton troupeau habita dans cette terre que ta bonté, ô Dieu, avait préparée pour l'affligé.
11Le Seigneur fait entendre sa parole, et les messagères de bonnes nouvelles sont une grande armée.
12Les rois des armées s'enfuient; ils s'enfuient, et celle qui reste à la maison partage le butin.
13Vous qui restez couchés au milieu des parcs, vous recevez les ailes argentées de la colombe, et son plumage d'un jaune d'or.
14Quand le Tout-Puissant dispersa les rois, la terre devint blanche comme la neige de Tsalmon.
15Montagne de Dieu, mont de Bassan, montagne aux cimes nombreuses, mont de Bassan,
16Pourquoi vous élevez-vous, monts aux cimes nombreuses, contre la montagne que Dieu a choisie pour sa demeure? L'Éternel y habitera pour jamais.
17Les chars de Dieu se comptent par vingt mille, par milliers redoublés; le Seigneur est au milieu d'eux; Sinaï est dans le sanctuaire.
18Tu es monté en haut, tu as emmené des captifs; tu as reçu des dons parmi les hommes, pour avoir ta demeure même chez les rebelles, ô Éternel Dieu!
19Béni soit le Seigneur chaque jour! Quand on nous accable, Dieu est notre délivrance. (Sélah.)
20Dieu est pour nous le Dieu des délivrances; c'est l'Éternel notre Dieu qui retire de la mort.
21Certainement Dieu écrasera la tête de ses ennemis, le crâne chevelu de celui qui marche dans ses forfaits.
22Le Seigneur a dit: Je les ramènerai de Bassan, je les ramènerai des profondeurs de la mer;
23Afin que tu plonges ton pied dans le sang, que la langue de tes chiens ait sa part des ennemis.
24On a vu ta marche, ô Dieu, la marche de mon Dieu, de mon Roi, dans le sanctuaire.
25Les chantres allaient devant; ensuite les joueurs de harpe, au milieu des jeunes filles qui battaient le tambourin.
26Bénissez Dieu dans les assemblées, bénissez le Seigneur, vous qui sortez de la source d'Israël!
27Là sont Benjamin le petit, le dominateur; les chefs de Juda et leur multitude; les chefs de Zabulon; les chefs de Nephthali.
28Ton Dieu a ordonné ta force. Affermis, ô Dieu, ce que tu as fait pour nous!
29Dans ton temple qui est à Jérusalem, les rois t'apporteront des présents.
30Tance la bête des roseaux, la troupe des taureaux avec les veaux des peuples, ceux qui se sont parés de lames d'argent. Il disperse les peuples qui se plaisent aux combats.
31Les grands viendront d'Égypte. Cush se hâtera de tendre les mains vers Dieu.
32Royaumes de la terre, chantez à Dieu! Psalmodiez au Seigneur (Sélah),
33A celui qui s'avance porté sur les cieux des cieux, les cieux éternels! Voici, il fait retentir sa voix, sa puissante voix.
34Rendez la force à Dieu! Sa majesté est sur Israël, sa force est dans les nues.
35De tes sanctuaires, ô Dieu, tu te montres redoutable. C'est lui, le Dieu d'Israël, qui donne force et puissance au peuple. Béni soit Dieu!
Reina-Valera 1909
1Al Músico principal: Salmo de David: Canción. LEVÁNTESE Dios, sean esparcidos sus enemigos, y huyan de su presencia los que le aborrecen.
2Como es lanzado el humo, los lanzarás: como se derrite la cera delante del fuego, así perecerán los impíos delante de Dios.
3Mas los justos se alegrarán: gozarse han delante de Dios, y saltarán de alegría.
4Cantad á Dios, cantad salmos á su nombre: ensalzad al que sube sobre los cielos en JAH su nombre, y alegraos delante de él.
5Padre de huérfanos y defensor de viudas, es Dios en la morada de su santuario:
6El Dios que hace habitar en familia los solos; que saca á los aprisionados con grillos: mas los rebeldes habitan en sequedad.
7Oh Dios, cuando tú saliste delante de tu pueblo, cuando anduviste por el desierto, (Selah,)
8La tierra tembló; también destilaron los cielos á la presencia de Dios: aquel Sinaí tembló delante de Dios, del Dios de Israel.
9Abundante lluvia esparciste, oh Dios, á tu heredad; y cuando se cansó, tú la recreaste.
10Los que son de tu grey han morado en ella: por tu bondad, oh Dios, has provisto al pobre.
11El Señor daba palabra: de las evangelizantes había grande ejército.
12Huyeron, huyeron reyes de ejércitos; y las que se quedaban en casa partían los despojos.
13Bien que fuisteis echados entre los tiestos, seréis como las alas de la paloma cubierta de plata, y sus plumas con amarillez de oro.
14Cuando esparció el Omnipotente los reyes en ella, emblanquecióse ésta como la nieve en Salmón.
15Monte de Dios es el monte de Basán; monte alto el de Basán.
16¿Por qué os levantáis, oh montes altos? Este monte amó Dios para su asiento; ciertamente Jehová habitará en él para siempre.
17Los carros de Dios son veinte mil, y más millares de ángeles. El Señor entre ellos, como en Sinaí, así en el santuario.
18Subiste á lo alto, cautivaste la cautividad, tomaste dones para los hombres, y también para los rebeldes, para que habite entre ellos JAH Dios.
19Bendito el Señor; cada día nos colma de beneficios el Dios de nuestra salud. (Selah.)
20Dios, nuestro Dios ha de salvarnos; y de Dios Jehová es el librar de la muerte.
21Ciertamente Dios herirá la cabeza de sus enemigos, la cabelluda mollera del que camina en sus pecados.
22El Señor dijo: De Basán haré volver, te haré volver de los profundos de la mar:
23Porque tu pie se enrojecerá de sangre de tus enemigos, y de ella la lengua de tus perros.
24Vieron tus caminos, oh Dios; los caminos de mi Dios, de mi Rey, en el santuario.
25Los cantores iban delante, los tañedores detrás; en medio, las doncellas con adufes.
26Bendecid á Dios en congregaciones: al Señor, vosotros de la estirpe de Israel.
27Allí estaba el joven Benjamín señoreador de ellos, los príncipes de Judá en su congregación, los príncipes de Zabulón, los príncipes de Nephtalí.
28Tu Dios ha ordenado tu fuerza; confirma, oh Dios, lo que has obrado en nosotros.
29Por razón de tu templo en Jerusalem los reyes te ofrecerán dones.
30Reprime la reunión de gentes armadas, la multitud de toros con los becerros de los pueblos, hasta que todos se sometan con sus piezas de plata: disipa los pueblos que se complacen en la guerra.
31Vendrán príncipes de Egipto; Etiopía apresurará sus manos á Dios.
32Reinos de la tierra, cantad á Dios, cantad al Señor (Selah);
33Al que cabalga sobre los cielos de los cielos que son de antiguo: he aquí á su voz dará voz de fortaleza.
34Atribuid fortaleza á Dios: sobre Israel es su magnificencia, y su poder está en los cielos.
35Terrible eres, oh Dios, desde tus santuarios: el Dios de Israel, él da fortaleza y vigor á su pueblo. Bendito Dios.
King James Version
1Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: let them also that hate him flee before him.
2As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
3But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice.
4Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name Jah, and rejoice before him.
5A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.
6God setteth the solitary in families: he bringeth out those which are bound with chains: but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.
7O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, when thou didst march through the wilderness; Selah:
8The earth shook, the heavens also dropped at the presence of God: even Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, whereby thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.
10Thy congregation hath dwelt therein: thou, O God, hast prepared of thy goodness for the poor.
11The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.
12Kings of armies did flee apace: and she that tarried at home divided the spoil.
13Though ye have lien among the pots, yet shall ye be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and her feathers with yellow gold.
14When the Almighty scattered kings in it, it was white as snow in Salmon.
15The hill of God is as the hill of Bashan; an high hill as the hill of Bashan.
16Why leap ye, ye high hills? this is the hill which God desireth to dwell in; yea, the LORD will dwell in it for ever.
17The chariots of God are twenty thousand, even thousands of angels: the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place.
18Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive: thou hast received gifts for men; yea, for the rebellious also, that the LORD God might dwell among them.
19Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah.
20He that is our God is the God of salvation; and unto GOD the Lord belong the issues from death.
21But God shall wound the head of his enemies, and the hairy scalp of such an one as goeth on still in his trespasses.
22The Lord said, I will bring again from Bashan, I will bring my people again from the depths of the sea:
23That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies, and the tongue of thy dogs in the same.
24They have seen thy goings, O God; even the goings of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.
25The singers went before, the players on instruments followed after; among them were the damsels playing with timbrels.
26Bless ye God in the congregations, even the Lord, from the fountain of Israel.
27There is little Benjamin with their ruler, the princes of Judah and their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.
28Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which thou hast wrought for us.
29Because of thy temple at Jerusalem shall kings bring presents unto thee.
30Rebuke the company of spearmen, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the people, till every one submit himself with pieces of silver: scatter thou the people that delight in war.
31Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God.
32Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; Selah:
33To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, he doth send out his voice, and that a mighty voice.
34Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds.
35O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel is he that giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God.

7God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the wilderness... Selah.
8The earth trembled. The sky also poured down rain at the presence of the God of Sinai— at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9You, God, sent a plentiful rain. You confirmed your inheritance when it was weary.
10Your congregation lived therein. You, God, prepared your goodness for the poor.
11The Lord announced the word. The ones who proclaim it are a great company.
12“Kings of armies flee! They flee!” She who waits at home divides the plunder,
13while you sleep among the camp fires, the wings of a dove sheathed with silver, her feathers with shining gold.
14When the Almighty scattered kings in her, it snowed on Zalmon.
15The mountains of Bashan are majestic mountains. The mountains of Bashan are rugged.
16Why do you look in envy, you rugged mountains, at the mountain where God chooses to reign? Yes, the LORD will dwell there forever.
17The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands. The Lord is among them, from Sinai, into the sanctuary.

19Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burdens, even the God who is our salvation. Selah.

22The Lord said, “I will bring you again from Bashan, I will bring you again from the depths of the sea,
23that you may crush them, dipping your foot in blood, that the tongues of your dogs may have their portion from your enemies.”

26“Bless God in the congregations, even the Lord in the assembly of Israel!”
27There is little Benjamin, their ruler, the princes of Judah, their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.
28Your God has commanded your strength. Strengthen, God, that which you have done for us.
29Because of your temple at Jerusalem, kings will bring presents to you.
30Rebuke the wild animal of the reeds, the multitude of the bulls with the calves of the peoples. Trample under foot the bars of silver. Scatter the nations who delight in war.
31Princes shall come out of Egypt. Ethiopia shall hurry to stretch out her hands to God.
32Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth! Sing praises to the Lord—Selah—
33to him who rides on the heaven of heavens, which are of old; behold, he utters his voice, a mighty voice.
34Ascribe strength to God! His excellency is over Israel, his strength is in the skies.
35You are awesome, God, in your sanctuaries. The God of Israel gives strength and power to his people. Praise be to God!
