Psalm 68:1-3
New Century Version

Praise God Who Saved the Nation

For the director of music. A psalm of David. A song.

68 Let God rise up and scatter his enemies;
    let those who hate him run away from him.
2 Blow them away as smoke
    is driven away by the wind.
As wax melts before a fire,
    let the wicked be destroyed before God.
3 But those who do right should be glad
    and should rejoice before God;
    they should be happy and glad.
