Psalms 68:1-10

Psalms 68:1-10 CEB

Let God rise up; let his enemies scatter; let those who hate him run scared before him! Like smoke is driven away, drive them away! Like wax melting before fire, let the wicked perish before God! But let the righteous be glad and celebrate before God. Let them rejoice with gladness! Sing to God! Sing praises to his name! Exalt the one who rides the clouds! The LORD is his name. Celebrate before him! Father of orphans and defender of widows is God in his holy habitation. God settles the lonely in their homes; he sets prisoners free with happiness, but the rebellious dwell in a parched land. When you went forth before your people, God, when you marched through the wasteland, Selah the earth shook! Yes, heaven poured down before God, the one from Sinai— before God, the God of Israel! You showered down abundant rain, God; when your inheritance grew weary, you restored it yourself, and your creatures settled in it. In your goodness, God, you provided for the poor.
