68:4-6 Exhortation to Sing to God. The faithful are to sing to God because he has shown himself kind, especially to helpless people (fatherless, or "orphans"; widows, cf. 146:9; Deut. 10:18; James 1:27; solitary; prisoners). The rebellious (i.e., those against God's gracious covenant), however, he exiles to a parched land: they may not dwell among his people.
