7GodH430, when You 9wentH3318 forthH3318 beforeH6440 Your peopleH5971, When You 10marchedH6805 through the desertH3452, SelahH55428The 11earthH776 quakedH7493; The 12heavensH8064 alsoH637 droppedH5197 rain at the presenceH6440 of GodH430; 1314SinaiH5514 itselfH2088 quaked at the presenceH6440 of GodH430, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.9You 15madeH5130 plentifulH5071 rainH1653 fallH5130, GodH430; You confirmedH3559 Your inheritanceH5159 when it wasH3811 16parchedH3811.10Your creaturesH2421 settledH3427 in it; In Your kindnessH2899 You 17providedH3559 for the poorH6041, GodH430.
11The LordH136 givesH5414 the 18commandH561; The 19women who proclaimH1319 goodH1319 newsH1319 are a greatH7227 armyH6635:12“20KingsH4428 of armiesH6635 fleeH5074, they fleeH5074, And she whoH5116 remainsH5116 at homeH1004 will 21divideH2505 the spoilsH7998!”1322WhenH518 you lieH7901 downH7901 23amongH996 the sheepfoldsH8240, You are like the wingsH3671 of a doveH3123 coveredH2645 with silverH3701, And its pinionsH84 with 24glisteningH3422 goldH2742.14When the AlmightyH7706 25scatteredH6566 the kingsH4428 26there, It was snowingH7949 in 27ZalmonH6756.
1528The mountainH2022 of BashanH1316 is a 29mountainH2022 of GodH430; The mountainH2022 of BashanH1316 is a mountainH2022 of manyH1386 peaksH1386.16WhyH4100 do you lookH7520 withH7520 envyH7520, you mountainsH2022 of manyH1386 peaksH1386, At the mountainH2022 GodH430 has 30desiredH2530 as His dwellingH3427? IndeedH637, 31the LordH3068 will dwellH7931 there foreverH5331.17The 32chariotsH7393 of GodH430 are 33myriadsH7239, 34thousandsH8136 upon thousandsH505; 35The LordH136 is among them as at SinaiH5514, in holinessH6944.18You have 36ascendedH5927 on highH4791, You have 37ledH7617 captiveH7617 Your captivesH7628; You have receivedH3947 giftsH4979 among peopleH120, Even among the rebelliousH5637 as wellH637, that 38the LordH3050 GodH430 may dwellH7931 there.
