For the choir director. A Psalm of David. A Song.

^[a]Let ^(a)God arise, ^[b]let His enemies be scattered, And ^[c]let those who hate Him flee before Him.

As ^(b)smoke is driven away, so drive them away; As ^(c)wax melts before the fire, So let the ^(d)wicked perish before God.

But let the ^(e)righteous be glad; let them exult before God; Yes, let them rejoice with gladness.

Sing to God, ^(f)sing praises to His name; ^[d](g)Lift up a song for Him who ^(h)rides through the deserts, Whose ⁽ⁱ⁾name is ^[e]the Lord , and exult before Him.

A ^(j)father of the fatherless and a ^(k)judge ^[f]for the widows, Is God in His ^(l)holy habitation.

God ^[g](m)makes a home for the lonely; He ⁽ⁿ⁾leads out the prisoners into prosperity, Only ^(o)the rebellious dwell in a parched land.
