sed

My file is:

DIVIDER  
Sometext_string

many  
lines  
of random  
text  
DIVIDER  
Another_Sometext_string  
many  
many  
lines  
DIVIDER  
Third_sometext_string  
....

How change lines following DIVIDER pattern

Result must be:

DIVIDER  
[begin]Sometext_string[end]

many 
lines  
of random  
text  
DIVIDER  
[begin]Another_Sometext_string[end]

many  
many  
lines  
DIVIDER  
[begin]Third_sometext_string[end]

....
