8The 1earthH776 quakedH7493; The 2heavensH8064 alsoH637 droppedH5197 rain at the presenceH6440 of GodH430; 34SinaiH5514 itselfH2088 quaked at the presenceH6440 of GodH430, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.9You 5madeH5130 plentifulH5071 rainH1653 fallH5130, GodH430; You confirmedH3559 Your inheritanceH5159 when it wasH3811 6parchedH3811.10Your creaturesH2421 settledH3427 in it; In Your kindnessH2899 You 7providedH3559 for the poorH6041, GodH430.

11The LordH136 givesH5414 the 8commandH561; The 9women who proclaimH1319 goodH1319 newsH1319 are a greatH7227 armyH6635:12“10KingsH4428 of armiesH6635 fleeH5074, they fleeH5074, And she whoH5116 remainsH5116 at homeH1004 will 11divideH2505 the spoilsH7998!”1312WhenH518 you lieH7901 downH7901 13amongH996 the sheepfoldsH8240, You are like the wingsH3671 of a doveH3123 coveredH2645 with silverH3701, And its pinionsH84 with 14glisteningH3422 goldH2742.14When the AlmightyH7706 15scatteredH6566 the kingsH4428 16there, It was snowingH7949 in 17ZalmonH6756.

1518The mountainH2022 of BashanH1316 is a 19mountainH2022 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 20desiredH2530 as His dwellingH3427? IndeedH637, 21the LordH3068 will dwellH7931 there foreverH5331.17The 22chariotsH7393 of GodH430 are 23myriadsH7239, 24thousandsH8136 upon thousandsH505; 25The LordH136 is among them as at SinaiH5514, in holinessH6944.
