1God, arise and scatter your enemies,
2Like wind blows smoke away,
3But righteous people should be joyful;
4Sing to God; sing to praise him;
5God, who lives in his sacred temple, is like [MET] a father to those who are orphans,
6For those who have no one to live with, he provides families to live with.
7God, you led your people out of Egypt,
8After you did that, because when you, the God worshiped by us Israeli people, appeared to us at Sinai Mountain,,
9You caused plenty of rain to fall on your land,
10Your people built homes there;
11The Lord gave a message,
12They proclaimed, “Many kings and their armies are running away from our army!”
13Even those women who were in the pens taking care of the sheep received some of those things;
14When Almighty God scattered the enemy kings and their armies,
15There is a very high mountain in the Bashan region,
16But the people who live near that mountain should not [RHQ] envy those who live near Zion,
17After we defeated all our enemies,
18He ascended the sacred mountain where his temple is,
19Praise the Lord, who helps us carry our heavy loads every day;
20Our God is the God who saves us;
21But God will smash the heads of his enemies,
22The Lord said, “I will bring back the corpses of those who were killed in Bashan,
23I will do that in order that you may wash your feet in their blood,
24God, many people see you march triumphantly into your sacred temple,
25The singers are in front, and the people who play stringed instruments are at the rear,
26They are all singing, “You Israeli people, praise God when you gather together;
27First come the people of the tribe of Benjamin, the smallest tribe,
28God, show people that you are very powerful;
29Show that power from your temple in Jerusalem,
30Rebuke your enemies, such as those in Egypt who are like wild hippopotamuses/animals that live in the reeds;
31Then people will bring gifts of bronze (OR, of cloth) to you from Egypt;
32You people who are citizens of kingdoms/countries all over the world, sing to God!
33Sing to the God, the one who rides across the sky,
34Proclaim that God is very powerful;
35God is awesome as he comes out of his sacred temple;
