Psalm 68:6-8 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

6 God gives the lonely a home.
    He leads prisoners out with joy.
    But those who turn against God will live in a dry land.

7 God, you led your people out.
    You marched through the desert. Selah
8 The ground shook,
    and the sky poured down rain
before God, the God of Mount Sinai,
    before God, the God of Israel.

Psalm 68:6-8 New International Version (NIV)

6 God sets the lonely in families,[a]
    he leads out the prisoners with singing;
    but the rebellious live in a sun-scorched land.

7 When you, God, went out before your people,
    when you marched through the wilderness,[b]
8 the earth shook, the heavens poured down rain,
    before God, the One of Sinai,
    before God, the God of Israel.
