Psalms 68:26
24 They have seen Your procession, O God— the march of my God and King into the sanctuary.
25 The singers lead the way, the musicians follow after, among the maidens playing tambourines.
Bless God in the great congregation; bless the LORD from the fountain of Israel.
27 There is Benjamin, the youngest, ruling them, the princes of Judah in their company, the princes of Zebulun and of Naphtali.
28 Summon Your power, O God; show Your strength, O God, which You have exerted on our behalf.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
