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

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