Psalms 68:1

1 God springs into action! ^{▼▼ Or “rises up.” The verb form is an imperfect, not a jussive. The psalmist is describing God’s appearance in battle in a dramatic fashion.}
His enemies scatter;
his adversaries ^{▼▼ Heb “those who hate him.”} run from him. ^{▼▼ The wording of v. 1 echoes the prayer in Num 10:35: “Spring into action, Lord! Then your enemies will be scattered and your adversaries will run from you.”}
