1. Let God arise,Let His enemies be scattered;Let those also who hate Him flee before Him.
2. As smoke is driven away,So drive them away;As wax melts before the fire,So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
3. But let the righteous be glad;Let them rejoice before God;Yes, let them rejoice exceedingly.
4. Sing to God, sing praises to His name;Extol Him who rides on the clouds,By His name Yah,And rejoice before Him.
5. A father of the fatherless, a defender of widows,Is God in His holy habitation.
6. God sets the solitary in families;He brings out those who are bound into prosperity;But the rebellious dwell in a dry land.
7. O God, when You went out before Your people,When You marched through the wilderness,Selah
8. The earth shook;The heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God;Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9. You, O God, sent a plentiful rain,Whereby You confirmed Your inheritance,When it was weary.
10. Your congregation dwelt in it;You, O God, provided from Your goodness for the poor.
11. The Lord gave the word;Great was the company of those who proclaimed it:
12. “Kings of armies flee, they flee,And she who remains at home divides the spoil.
13. Though you lie down among the sheepfolds,You will be like the wings of a dove covered with silver,And her feathers with yellow gold.”
14. When the Almighty scattered kings in it,It was white as snow in Zalmon.
15. A mountain of God is the mountain of Bashan;A mountain of many peaks is the mountain of Bashan.
