1 Let aGod arise,

Let His enemies be scattered;

Let those also who hate Him flee before Him.

2 bAs smoke is driven away,

So drive them away;

cAs wax melts before the fire,

So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

3 But dlet the righteous be glad;

Let them rejoice before God;

Yes, let them rejoice exceedingly.

4 Sing to God, sing praises to His name;

eExtol 1Him who rides on the 2clouds,

fBy His name 3Yah,

And rejoice before Him.

5 gA father of the fatherless, a defender of widows,

Is God in His holy habitation.

6 hGod sets the solitary in families;

iHe brings out those who are bound into prosperity;

But jthe rebellious dwell in a dry land.

7 O God, kwhen You went out before Your people,

When You marched through the wilderness,

Selah

8 The earth shook;

The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God;

Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

9 lYou, O God, sent a plentiful rain,

Whereby You confirmed Your inheritance,

When it was weary.

10 Your congregation dwelt in it;

mYou, O God, provided from Your goodness for the poor.

11 The Lord gave the word;

Great was the 4company of those who proclaimed it:

12 “Kings nof armies flee, they flee,

And she who remains at home divides the 5spoil.

13 oThough you lie down among the 6sheepfolds,

pYou will be like the wings of a dove covered with silver,

And her feathers with yellow gold.”

14 qWhen the Almighty scattered kings in it,

It was white as snow in Zalmon.

15 A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan;

A mountain of many peaks is the mountain of Bashan.

16 Why do you 7fume with envy, you mountains of many peaks?

rThis is the mountain which God desires to dwell in;

Yes, the Lord will dwell in it forever.

17 sThe chariots of God are twenty thousand,

Even thousands of thousands;

The Lord is among them as in Sinai, in the Holy Place.

18 tYou have ascended on high,

uYou have led captivity captive;

vYou have received gifts among men,

Even from wthe rebellious,

xThat the Lord God might dwell there.

19 Blessed be the Lord,

Who daily loads us with benefits,

The God of our salvation!

Selah
