7. God, you led your people out of Egypt. You marched across the desert. Selah
8. The ground shook and rain poured from the sky when God, the God of Israel, came to Sinai.

11. My Lord gave the command, and many people went to tell the good news:

13. Those who stayed home will share in the wealth— metal doves with wings covered in silver and feathers sparkling with gold.”
14. God All-Powerful scattered the kings like snow falling on Mount Zalmon.
