Psalm 68:16-18

Holman Christian Standard Bible

¹⁶Why gaze with envy, you mountain peaks,
at the mountain^[a] God desired for His dwelling?
The Lord will live there forever!^(A)
¹⁷God’s chariots are tens of thousands,
thousands and thousands;^(B)
the Lord is among them in the sanctuary^[b]
as He was at Sinai.^(C)
¹⁸You ascended to the heights, taking away captives;
You received gifts from^[c] people,
even from the rebellious,
so that the Lord God might live there.^[d]^(D)
