Psalms 68:20-27
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 68
20God is to us a God of salvation; And to God the Lord belong ways of escape from death. 21God certainly will shatter the heads of His enemies, The hairy head of one who goes about in his guilt. 22The Lord said, 'I will bring them back from Bashan. I will bring them back from the depths of the sea, 23So that your foot may shatter them in blood, And the tongue of your dogs may have its portion from your enemies.' 24They have seen Your procession, God, The procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary. 25The singers went on, the musicians after them, In the midst of the young women beating tambourines. 26Bless God in the congregations, Even the Lord, you who are of the fountain of Israel. 27Benjamin, the youngest, is there, ruling them, The leaders of Judah in their company, The leaders of Zebulun, the leaders of Naphtali.King James Version

Chapter 68
20Our God is a God of salvation, and escape from death belongs to the Lord my Lord. 21Surely God crushes the heads of his enemies, the hairy brow of one who goes on in his guilty acts. 22The Lord said, "I will bring them back from Bashan; I will bring them back from the depths of the sea 23so that your foot may wade in blood and your dogs’ tongues may have their share from the enemies." 24People have seen your procession, God, the procession of my God, my King, in the sanctuary. 25Singers lead the way, with musicians following; among them are young women playing tambourines. 26Bless God in the assemblies; bless the Lord from the fountain of Israel.New Living Translation
21But God will smash the heads of his enemies, crushing the skulls of those who love their guilty ways.
22The Lord says, 'I will bring my enemies down from Bashan; I will bring them up from the depths of the sea.
23You, my people, will wash your feet in their blood, and even your dogs will get their share!'
24Your procession has come into view, O God — the procession of my God and King as he goes into the sanctuary.
25Singers are in front, musicians behind; between them are young women playing tambourines.
26Praise God, all you people of Israel; praise the Lord, the source of Israel’s life.
27Look, the little tribe of Benjamin leads the way. Then comes a great throng of rulers from Judah and all the rulers of Zebulun and Naphtali.

Chapter 68
20Our God is a God of salvation, and to God, the Lord, belong deliverances from death. 21 But God will strike the heads of his enemies, the hairy crown of him who walks in his guilty ways. 22The Lord said, "I will bring them back from Bashan, I will bring them back from the depths of the sea, 23that you may strike your feet in their blood, that the tongues of your dogs may have their portion from the foe." 24Your procession is seen, O God, the procession of my God, my King, into the sanctuary — 25 the singers in front, the musicians last, between them virgins playing tambourines: 26 "Bless God in the great congregation, the Lord, O you who are of Israel 's fountain!" 27There is Benjamin, the least of them, in the lead, the princes of Judah in their throng, the princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.New International Version
Chapter 68
20Our God is a God who saves; from the Sovereign Lord comes escape from death. 21Surely God will crush the heads of his enemies, the hairy crowns of those who go on in their sins. 22The Lord says, "I will bring them from Bashan; I will bring them from the depths of the sea,
23that your feet may wade in the blood of your foes, while the tongues of your dogs have their share."
24Your procession, God, has come into view, the procession of my God and King into the sanctuary.
25In front are the singers, after them the musicians; with them are the young women playing the timbrels.
26Praise God in the great congregation; praise the Lord in the assembly of Israel.
