Psalm 68:11-13
New Catholic Bible
11 It was there that your people settled;
and in your great goodness, O God,
you provided for those who were needy.
12 [a]The Lord issues the word,[b]
and a vast army proclaims good tidings:
13 “Kings and their armies are beating a hasty retreat;
even those who remained in camp are dividing up the spoils.
