Psalm 68:6-8

The Passion Translation

^5–6 To the fatherless he is a father.
To the widow he is a champion friend.
To the lonely he makes them part of a family.
To the prisoners^[a] he leads into prosperity until they sing for joy.
This is our Holy God in his Holy Place!
But for the rebels there is heartache and despair.^[b]
7 O Lord, it was you who marched in front of your people,
leading them through the wasteland.
Pause in his presence
⁸ The earth shook beneath your feet; the heavens filled with clouds
before the presence of the God of Sinai.
The sacred mountain shook at the sight of the face of Israel’s God.
