6. God settles the solitary in a home;he leads out the prisoners to prosperity,but the rebellious dwell in a parched land.
7. O God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the wilderness, Selah
8. the earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain,before God, the One of Sinai,before God, the God of Israel.
9. Rain in abundance, O God, you shed abroad;you restored your inheritance as it languished;
10. your flock found a dwelling in it;in your goodness, O God, you provided for the needy.
11. The Lord gives the word; the women who announce the news are a great host:
12. “The kings of the armies—they flee, they flee!”The women at home divide the spoil—
13. though you men lie among the sheepfolds—the wings of a dove covered with silver,its pinions with shimmering gold.
