3. But those who do right should be glad.They should rejoice before God.They should be happy and glad.
4. Sing to God. Sing praises to his name.Prepare the way for himwho rides through the desert.His name is the Lord.Rejoice before him.
5. God is in his holy Temple.He is a father to orphans.He defends the widows.
6. God gives the lonely a home.He leads prisoners out with joy.But those who turn against God will live in a dry land.
7. God, you led your people out.You marched through the desert. Selah
8. The ground shook,and the sky poured down rainbefore God, the God of Mount Sinai,before God, the God of Israel.
9. God, you sent much rain.You refreshed your tired land.
10. Your people settled there.God, in your goodnessyou took care of the poor.
11. The Lord gave the command.And a great army told the news:
12. “Kings and their armies run away.The women at home divide the wealth taken in war.”
13. Those who stayed behind by the sheepfoldwill get the riches taken in battle.
14. God scattered kingslike snow on Mount Zalmon.
