[But God shall smite the heads of his enemies :
the hairy scalp of those that walk in their sins.
The Lord said I will bring them back from Bashan :
I will bring them again from the deep sea;
That you may dip your feet in blood :
and the tongues of your dogs in the blood of your enemies.]
Your procession is seen, O God :
the procession of my God and King in the sanctuary.
The singers go before, the musicians come after :
and around them the maidens beating on the timbrels.
In their choirs they bless God :
those that are sprung from the fount of Israel bless the Lord.
There is the little tribe of Benjamin leading them :
the throng of the princes of Judah,
the princes of Zebulun and the princes of Naphtali.
Give the command, my God, in accordance with your power :
that godlike power whereby you act for us.
Give the command from your temple at Jerusalem :
and kings shall bring you tribute.
Rebuke the beast of the reeds,
the herd of bulls amidst the brutish peoples :
tread down those that are greedy for silver,
scatter the peoples that relish war.
Let them bring bronze from Egypt :
let the hands of the Nubians carry it swiftly to God.
Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth :
O sing praises to the Lord,
To him that rides upon the highest heavens,
that were from the beginning :
who utters his voice, which is a mighty voice.
Ascribe power to God, whose majesty is over Israel :
and his might is in the clouds.
Terrible is God who comes from his holy place :
the God of Israel who gives power and strength to his people.
Blessed be God.
