Psalm 68:6

God's Majestic Power

⁵ A father of the fatherless and a judge for the widows,
Is God in His holy habitation.
⁶ God makes a home for the lonely;
He leads out the prisoners into prosperity,
Only the rebellious dwell in a parched land.
⁷ O God, when You went forth before Your people,
When You marched through the wilderness, Selah.
