1. Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered; Let them also that hate him flee before him.
2. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: As wax melteth before the fire, So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
3. But let the righteous be glad; let them exult before God: Yea, let them rejoice with gladness.
4. Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: Cast up a highway for him that rideth through the deserts; His name is Jehovah; and exult ye before him.
5. A father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, Is God in his holy habitation.
6. God setteth the solitary in families: He bringeth out the prisoners into prosperity; But the rebellious dwell in a parched land.
7. O God, when thou wentest forth before thy people, When thou didst march through the wilderness;
8. The earth trembled, The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God: Yon Sinai trembled at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9. Thou, O God, didst send a plentiful rain, Thou didst confirm thine inheritance, when it was weary.
10. Thy congregation dwelt therein: Thou, O God, didst prepare of thy goodness for the poor.
11. The Lord giveth the word: The women that publish the tidings are a great host.
