The God of Israel at Sinai

68 May God rise up. May those who hate Him be divided. And may they run away from Him. Drive them away like smoke in the wind. Let the sinful be destroyed before God like a candle melts by the fire. But let those who are right and good be glad. Let them be happy before God. Yes, let them be full of joy.

Psalm 68[a]

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

May God arise,(A) may his enemies be scattered;(B)
    may his foes flee(C) before him.
May you blow them away like smoke—(D)
    as wax melts(E) before the fire,
    may the wicked perish(F) before God.
But may the righteous be glad
    and rejoice(G) before God;
    may they be happy and joyful.
