17 The chariots of God are twenty thousand, êven thou-sands of angels and the Lord is among them, as in the holy pláce of Si-nai.

18 Thou art gone up on high, thou hast led captivity captive, and received gifts for men: yea, even for thine enemies, that the Lord God might dwell a-möng them.

19 Praised be the Lord daily even the God who helpeth us, and pôureth his bé-nefits upon us.

20 He is our God, even the God of whôm com-ethusal-vation: God is the Lord, by whom we escape death.

21 God shall wound the head of his enemies and the hairy scalp of such a one as goeth on stíll in his wick-edness.

22 The Lord hath said, I will bring my people again, as I did from Basan: mine own will I bring again, as I did sometime from the deep of the sea.

23 That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thine enemies and that the tongue of thy dôgs may be red through

the same.

24 It is well seen, O Gôd, how thou goest how thou, my God and King, goest in the sanc-tua-ry.

29 For thy temple's sake at Jerú-sa-lem: so shall kings bring pré-sents unto thee.

30 When the company of the spear-men, and multitude of the mighty are scattered abroad among the beasts of the people, so that they humbly bring piec-es of silver: and when he hath scattered the people that de-light in war;

31 Then shall the princes côme out of Egypt: the Morians' land shall soon stretch out her hands unto God.

32 Sing unto God, O ye kingdoms of the f earth: O sing praís-es un-to the Lord;

33 Who sitteth in the heavens over all from the be-ginning: lo, he doth send out his voice, yêa, and that a mighty

voice.

34 Ascribe ye the power to God over Ís-ra-el: his worship, and strength is in

the clouds.

35 O God, wonderful art thou în thy hó-ly places: even the God of Israel; he will give strength and power unto his people; bléss-ed be God.

8 They go up as high as the hills, and down to the vál-leys-be-neath : even unto the place which thou hast appoint-ed för them.
