Psalms 68:1 meaning and explanation

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. A song. God arises. His enemies are scattered, and those who hate Him flee His presence.

Psalms 68:1, Berean Standard Bible

Explanation preview

This opening line is a superscription naming the choirmaster, David and the genre of song, followed by the psalm's keynote: God arises and His enemies scatter. The words echo Numbers 10:35, where Moses spoke them as the ark set out in the wilderness, so the psalm fuses worship with the memory of God marching ahead of His people.
