⁵ A father of the fatherless and a judge ^[f]for the widows,
Is God in His holy habitation.
⁶ God ^[g]makes a home for the lonely;
He leads out the prisoners into prosperity,
Only the rebellious dwell in a parched land.

⁷ O God, when You went forth before Your people,
When You marched through the wilderness, ^[h]Selah.
⁸ The earth quaked;
The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God;
^[i]Sinai itself quaked at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
⁹ You shed abroad a plentiful rain, O God;
You confirmed Your inheritance when it was ^[j]parched.
¹⁰ Your creatures settled in it;
You provided in Your goodness for the poor, O God.

¹¹ The Lord gives the ^[k]command;
The women who proclaim the good tidings are a great host:
¹² “Kings of armies flee, they flee,
And she who remains at home will divide the spoil!”
^13 [l]When you lie down among the ^[m]sheepfolds,
You are like the wings of a dove covered with silver,
And its pinions with glistening gold.
¹⁴ When the Almighty scattered the kings ^[n]there,
It was snowing in Zalmon.

¹⁵ A ^[o]mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan;
A mountain of many peaks is the mountain of Bashan.
¹⁶ Why do you look with envy, O mountains with many peaks,
At the mountain which God has desired for His abode?
Surely the Lord will dwell there forever.
¹⁷ The chariots of God are ^[p]myriads, thousands upon thousands;
^[q]The Lord is among them as at Sinai, in holiness.
¹⁸ You have ascended on high, You have led captive Your captives;
You have received gifts among men,
Even among the rebellious also, that ^[r]the Lord God may dwell there.

¹⁹ Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden,
The God who is our salvation. Selah.
²⁰ God is to us a God of deliverances;
And to ^[s]God the Lord belong escapes ^[t]from death.
²¹ Surely God will shatter the head of His enemies,
The hairy crown of him who goes on in his guilty deeds.
²² The Lord ^[u]said, “I will bring them back from Bashan.
I will bring them back from the depths of the sea;
²³ That ^[v]your foot may shatter them in blood,
The tongue of your dogs may have its portion from your enemies.”

²⁴ They have seen Your ^[w]procession, O God,
The ^[x]procession of my God, my King, ^[y]into the sanctuary.
²⁵ The singers went on, the musicians after them,
^[z]In the midst of the maidens beating tambourines.
²⁶ Bless God in the congregations,
Even the Lord, you who are of the fountain of Israel.
²⁷ There is Benjamin, the ^[aa]youngest, ^[ab]ruling them,
The princes of Judah in their throng,
The princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.

^28 [ac]Your God has commanded your strength;
Show Yourself strong, O God, who have acted ^[ad]on our behalf.
^29 [ae]Because of Your temple at Jerusalem
Kings will bring gifts to You.
³⁰ Rebuke the beasts ^[af]in the reeds,
The herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples,
Trampling under foot the pieces of silver;
He has scattered the peoples who delight in war.
³¹ Envoys will come out of Egypt;
^[ag]Ethiopia will quickly stretch out her hands to God.

³² Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth,
Sing praises to the Lord, Selah.
³³ To Him who rides upon the ^[ah]highest heavens, which are from ancient times;
Behold, He ^[ai]speaks forth with His voice, a mighty voice.
³⁴ Ascribe strength to God;
His majesty is over Israel
And His strength is in the ^[aj]skies.
^35 [ak]O God, You are awesome from Your ^[al]sanctuary.
The God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to the people.
Blessed be God!
