4 Sing to God, sing in praise of his name,extol him who rides on the clouds;rejoice before him – his name is the Lord.
5 A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows,is God in his holy dwelling.
6 God sets the lonely in families,he leads out the prisoners with singing;but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.
7 When you, God, went out before your people,when you marched through the wilderness,
8 the earth shook, the heavens poured down rain,before God, the One of Sinai,before God, the God of Israel.
9 You gave abundant showers, O God;you refreshed your weary inheritance.
10 Your people settled in it,and from your bounty, God, you provided for the poor.
