6. God places the solitary in families and gives the desolate a home in which to dwell; He leads the prisoners out to prosperity; but the rebellious dwell in a parched land.
7. O God, when You went forth before Your people, when You marched through the wilderness–Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!–
8. The earth trembled, the heavens also poured down [rain] at the presence of God; yonder Sinai quaked at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
9. You, O God, did send a plentiful rain; You did restore and confirm Your heritage when it languished and was weary.
10. Your flock found a dwelling place in it; You, O God, in Your goodness did provide for the poor and needy.
