Psalms 68:17

Read in context

Psalms 68:15–19 · Berean Standard Bible

15 A mountain of God is Mount Bashan; a mountain of many peaks is Mount Bashan.

16 Why do you gaze in envy, O mountains of many peaks? This is the mountain God chose for His dwelling, where the LORD will surely dwell forever.

17 The chariots of God are tens of thousands— thousands of thousands are they; the Lord is in His sanctuary as He was at Sinai.

18 You have ascended on high; You have led captives away. You have received gifts from men, even from the rebellious, that the LORD God may dwell there.

19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, the God of our salvation. Selah
