7-10 God, when you took the lead with your people,
    when you marched out into the wild,
Earth shook, sky broke out in a sweat;
    God was on the march.
Even Sinai trembled at the sight of God on the move,
    at the sight of Israel’s God.
You pour out rain in buckets, O God;
    thorn and cactus become an oasis
For your people to camp in and enjoy.
    You set them up in business;
    they went from rags to riches.

When you, God, went out(A) before your people,
    when you marched through the wilderness,[a](B)
the earth shook,(C) the heavens poured down rain,(D)
    before God, the One of Sinai,(E)
    before God, the God of Israel.(F)
You gave abundant showers,(G) O God;
    you refreshed your weary inheritance.
