1. To the Overseer. --A Psalm, a song of David. Rise doth God--scattered are His enemies! And those hating Him flee from His face.
2. As the driving away of smoke Thou drivest away, As the melting of wax before fire, The wicked perish at the presence of God.
3. And the righteous rejoice, they exult before God, And they joy with gladness.
4. Sing ye to God--praise His name, Raise up a highway for Him who is riding in deserts, In Jah [is] His name, and exult before Him.
5. Father of the fatherless, and judge of the widows, [Is] God in His holy habitation.
6. God--causing the lonely to dwell at home, Bringing out bound ones into prosperity, Only--the refractory have inhabited a dry place.
7. O God, in Thy going forth before Thy people, In Thy stepping through the wilderness, Selah.
8. The earth hath shaken, Yea, the heavens have dropped before God, This Sinai--before God, the God of Israel.
9. A shower of free-will gifts thou shakest out, O God. Thine inheritance, when it hath been weary, Thou hast established it.
10. Thy company have dwelt in it, Thou preparest in Thy goodness for the poor, O God.
11. The Lord doth give the saying, The female proclaimers [are] a numerous host.
12. Kings of hosts flee utterly away, And a female inhabitant of the house apportioneth spoil.
13. Though ye do lie between two boundaries, Wings of a dove covered with silver, And her pinions with yellow gold.
14. When the Mighty spreadeth kings in it, It doth snow in Salmon.
15. A hill of God [is] the hill of Bashan, A hill of heights [is] the hill of Bashan.
