18 Thou hast ascended on high, Thou hast taken captive  captivity, Thou hast taken gifts for men, That even the  refractory may rest, O Jah God.
         
                                
                        19 Blessed [is] the Lord, day by day He layeth on us. God  Himself [is] our salvation. Selah.
         
                                
                        20 God Himself [is] to us a God for deliverances, And Jehovah  Lord hath the outgoings of death.
         
                                
                        21 Only -- God doth smite The head of His enemies, The hairy  crown of a habitual walker in his guilt.
         
                                
                        22 The Lord said: `From Bashan I bring back, I bring back  from the depths of the sea.
         
                                
                        23 So that thou dashest thy foot in blood, [In the blood of]  enemies -- the tongue of Thy dogs.`
         
                                
                        24 They have seen Thy goings, O God, Goings of my God, my  king, in the sanctuary.
