As smoke is driven away,
so drive them away.
As wax melts before the fire,
so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

But let the righteous be glad.
Let them rejoice before God.
Yes, let them rejoice with gladness.

Sing to God! Sing praises to his name!
Extol him who rides on the clouds:

Rejoice before him!

A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows,
is God in his holy habitation.
