5 He is a father to the fatherlessand an advocate for widows.God rules from his holy palace.
6 God settles those who have been deserted in their own homes;he frees prisoners and grants them prosperity.But sinful rebels live in the desert.
7 O God, when you lead your people into battle,when you march through the desert, (Selah)
8 the earth shakes,yes, the heavens pour down rainbefore God, the God of Sinai,before God, the God of Israel.
9 O God, you cause abundant showers to fall on your chosen people.When they are tired, you sustain them,
10 for you live among them.You sustain the oppressed with your good blessings, O God.
11 The Lord speaks;many, many women spread the good news.
