7. O God, when You went forth before Your people,when You marched through the wasteland, Selah
8. the earth shook;the heavens also poured down rainat the presence of God; even Sinai shookat the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9. You, O God, sent plentiful rain;You established Your inheritance when it was weary.

19. Blessed be the Lord, who daily loads us with benefits,even the God who is our salvation. Selah
