Psalms 68:2
Psalms 68:2 American Standard Version (ASV)
As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: As wax melteth before the fire, So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
Psalms 68:1-4 The Message (MSG)
Up with God! Down with his enemies! Adversaries, run for the hills! Gone like a puff of smoke, like a blob of wax in the fire— one look at God and the wicked vanish. When the righteous see God in action they’ll laugh, they’ll sing, they’ll laugh and sing for joy. Sing hymns to God; all heaven, sing out; clear the way for the coming of Cloud-Rider. Enjoy GOD, cheer when you see him!
