Psalms 68:24-25

Context

68:24 They 1  see your processions, O God –

the processions of my God, my king, who marches along in holy splendor. 2 

68:25 Singers walk in front;

musicians follow playing their stringed instruments, 3 

in the midst of young women playing tambourines. 4 

1 tn The subject is probably indefinite, referring to bystanders in general who witness the procession.

2 tn The Hebrew text has simply “in holiness.” The words “who marches along” are supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

3 tn Heb “after [are] the stringed instrument players.”

4 sn To celebrate a military victory, women would play tambourines (see Exod 15:20; Judg 11:34; 1 Sam 18:6).
