How thou hast driven out the Heathen with thy hand, and planted them in; how thou hast destroyed the nations and cast them out.
Muster you, and come, all ye Heathen round about. Gather you together, there shall the LORD lay all thy giants to the ground. Let the people arise, and get them to the valley of Jehoshaphat: for there will I sit, and judge all Heathen round about. Lay to your scythes, for the harvest is ripe. Come, get you down: the winepress is full, yea the winepresses run over, for their wickedness is waxen great.
Thou troddest down the land in thine anger, and didst thrash the Heathen in thy displeasure.
If the kindred of Egypt go not up, and come not, it shall not rain upon them neither. This shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all Heathen, that come not up to keep the feast of tabernacles.

Thy way, O God, is holy: who is so great a God as our God? Thou art the God that doest wonders, and hast declared thy power among the people. Thou, with thine arm, hast delivered thy people, even the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. read more.
The waters saw thee, O God; the waters saw thee, and were afraid, the depths were moved. The thick clouds poured out water, the air thundered, and thine arrows went abroad. The voice of thy thunder was heard round about; the lightnings shone upon the ground. The earth was moved, and shook withal. Thy way is in the sea, and thy paths in the great waters; and thy footsteps are not known. Thou leddest thy people like sheep, by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

God cometh from Teman, and the holy one from the mount of Paran. Selah. His glory covereth the heavens, and the earth is full of his praise. His shine is as the sun, and beams of light go out of his hands; there is his power hid. Destruction goeth before him, and burning cressettes go from his feet. read more.
He standeth, and measureth the earth. He looketh, and the people consume away, the mountains of the world fall down to powder, and the hills are fain to bow themselves, for his goings are everlasting and sure. I saw, that the pavilions of the Ethiopians and the tents of the land of Midian were vexed for weariness. Wast thou not angry, O LORD, in the waters? Was not thy wrath in the floods, and thy displeasure in the sea? Yes, when thou sattest upon thine horse, and when thy chariots had the victory. Thou showedest thy bow openly, like as thou hadst promised with an oath unto the tribes. Selah. Thou didst divide the waters of the earth. The mountains saw thee, and they tembled, the water stream went away: the deep made a noise at the lifting up of thine hand. The Sun and Moon remained still in their habitation. Thine arrows went out glistering, and thy spears as the shine of the lightning. Thou troddest down the land in thine anger, and didst thrash the Heathen in thy displeasure.
