11 The Lord gives (A)the word;
    (B)the women who announce the news are a great host:
12     (C)“The kings of the armies—they flee, they flee!”
The women at home (D)divide the spoil—
13     though you men lie among (E)the sheepfolds—
the wings of a dove covered with silver,
    its pinions with shimmering gold.
14 When the Almighty scatters kings there,
    let snow fall on (F)Zalmon.

15 O mountain of God, mountain of Bashan;
    O many-peaked[a] mountain, mountain of Bashan!
16 Why do you look with hatred, O many-peaked mountain,
    at the mount that God (G)desired for his abode,
    yes, where the Lord will dwell forever?
17 (H)The chariots of God are twice ten thousand,
    thousands upon thousands;
    the Lord is among them; Sinai is now in the sanctuary.
18 (I)You ascended on high,
    (J)leading a host of captives in your train
    and (K)receiving gifts among men,
even among (L)the rebellious, (M)that the Lord God may dwell there.
