⁴ Sing to God, sing praises to His name;
    raise a song to Him who rides through the deserts—
His name is the Lord;
    exult before Him.
⁵ A father of the fatherless, and a protector of the widows,
    is God in His holy habitation.
⁶ God sets the deserted in families;
    He brings out prisoners into prosperity,
    but the rebellious dwell in a dry land.

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 rain
at the presence of God; even Sinai shook
    at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
⁹ You, O God, sent plentiful rain;
    You established Your inheritance when it was weary.
¹⁰ Your congregation has lived in it;
    You, O God, by Your goodness have prepared for the poor.

¹¹ The Lord gave the word;
    great was the company of women who proclaimed it:
¹² “Kings of armies flee; they flee!”
    Even the women who were at home divided the spoil.
¹³ Though you sleep between the sheepfolds,
    yet you will be like the wings of a dove overlaid with silver,
    and its feathers with yellow gold.
¹⁴ When the Almighty scattered kings in it,
    it was white as snow on Mount Zalmon.

¹⁵ The mountain of God is as the mountain of Bashan;
    a mountain of many peaks like the mountain of Bashan.
¹⁶ Why are you envious, you mountains of many peaks?
    This is the mountain which God desires to dwell in;
    yes, the Lord will dwell in it forever.
¹⁷ The chariots of God are twice ten thousand, even thousands of thousands;
    the Lord is among them, as in Sinai, in the holy place.
¹⁸ You have ascended on high,
    You have led captivity captive;
    You have received gifts from people,
yes, even from the rebellious,
    that the Lord God might dwell among them.

¹⁹ Blessed be the Lord, who daily loads us with benefits,
    even the God who is our salvation. Selah
²⁰ That God is for us, the God of saving acts;
    and to God the Lord belongs escape from death.
²¹ But God will shatter the head of His enemies,
    and the scalp of one who walks in his trespasses.
²² The Lord said, “I will cause them to return from Bashan,
    I will bring my people again from the depths of the sea,
²³ that your foot may stomp in the blood of your enemies,
    and the tongue of your dogs may have a portion in it.”

²⁴ They have seen Your processions, O God,
    the processions of my God, my King, in the sanctuary.
²⁵ The singers went before,
    the players on instruments followed after;
    among them were the young women playing tambourines.
²⁶ Bless God in the congregations,
    the Lord, from the fountain of Israel.
²⁷ There is little Benjamin leading them,
    the princes of Judah and their throng of people,
    the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.

²⁸ Your God has commanded your strength;
    strengthen, O God, what You have done for us.
²⁹ From Your temple above Jerusalem,
    kings will bring gifts to You.
³⁰ Rebuke the animals that live among the reeds,
    the herd of bulls, with the calves of the people,
until everyone submits himself with pieces of silver;
    scatter peoples who delight in war.
³¹ Ambassadors will come out of Egypt;
    Ethiopia will stretch out its hands to God.

³² Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth;
    oh, sing praises to the Lord; Selah
³³ to Him who rides on the heavens, the ancient heavens;
    He who sends out His voice, a mighty voice.
³⁴ Ascribe strength to God;
    His majesty is over Israel,
    and His strength is in the clouds.
³⁵ O God, You are awesome from Your sanctuaries;
    the God of Israel is He who gives strength and power to people.

Blessed be God!
