Psalms

Psalm 68:32–35

³²Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth;

sing praises to the Lord—

Selah

³³to Him who rides upon the highest heavens of old;

behold, His mighty voice resounds.

³⁴Ascribe the power to God,

whose majesty is over Israel,

whose strength is in the skies.

³⁵O God, You are awesome in Your sanctuary;

the God of Israel Himself

gives strength and power to His people.

Blessed be God!
