Psalms 68:18 in Context — Psalms 68

16 Montagnes de Dieu, montagnes de Basan, Montagnes aux cimes nombreuses, montagnes de Basan,

17 Pourquoi, montagnes aux cimes nombreuses, avez-vous de l’envie Contre la montagne que Dieu a voulue pour résidence? L’Éternel n’en fera pas moins sa demeure à perpétuité.

18 Les chars de l’Éternel se comptent par vingt mille, Par milliers et par milliers; Le Seigneur est au milieu d’eux, le Sinaï est dans le sanctuaire.

19 Tu es monté dans les hauteurs, tu as emmené des captifs, Tu as pris en don des hommes; Les rebelles habiteront aussi près de l’Éternel Dieu.

20 Béni soit le Seigneur chaque jour! Quand on nous accable, Dieu nous délivre. — Pause.
