68:1 Let God rise up, let his enemies be scattered; let those who hate him flee before
him.
68:2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away; as wax melts before the fire, let the
wicked perish before God.
68:3 But let the righteous be joyful; let them exult before God; let them be jubilant
with joy.
68:4 Sing to God, sing praises to his name; lift up a song to him who rides upon the
clouds--his name is the LORD-- be exultant before him.
68:5 Father of orphans and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation.
68:6 God gives the desolate a home to live in; he leads out the prisoners to
prosperity, but the rebellious live in a parched land.
68:7 O God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the
wilderness, Selah
68:8 the earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain at the presence of God, the God of
Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
68:9 Rain in abundance, O God, you showered abroad; you restored your heritage when it
languished;
68:10 your flock found a dwelling in it; in your goodness, O God, you provided for the
needy.
68:32 Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth; sing praises to the Lord, Selah
68:33 O rider in the heavens, the ancient heavens; listen, he sends out his voice, his
mighty voice.
68:34 Ascribe power to God, whose majesty is over Israel; and whose power is in the
skies.
68:35 Awesome is God in his sanctuary, the God of Israel; he gives power and strength
to his people. Blessed be God!
