Psalm 68:2-7
New International Version
2 May you blow them away like smoke—(A)
as wax melts(B) before the fire,
may the wicked perish(C) before God.
3 But may the righteous be glad
and rejoice(D) before God;
may they be happy and joyful.
4 Sing to God, sing in praise of his name,(E)
extol him who rides on the clouds[a](F);
rejoice before him—his name is the Lord.(G)
5 A father to the fatherless,(H) a defender of widows,(I)
is God in his holy dwelling.(J)
6 God sets the lonely(K) in families,[b](L)
he leads out the prisoners(M) with singing;
but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.(N)
