Your flock found a dwelling place in it;
O God, in Your goodness You provided for the poor.

You led Your people like a flock
By the hand of Moses and Aaron [to the promised goal].

But God led His own people forward like sheep
And guided them in the wilderness like [a good shepherd with] a flock.

Hear us O Shepherd of Israel,
You who lead Joseph like a flock;
You who sit enthroned above the cherubim [of the ark of the covenant], shine forth!

Yet He sets the needy securely on high, away from affliction,
And makes their families like a flock.
