1 Would that thou hadst rent the heavens, hadst come down, 2 At thy presence, had mountains, quaked: As fire kindleth brushwood, As fire causeth, water, to boil, So if thou wouldst make known thy Name to thine adversaries, At thy presence, nations, would tremble. 3 When thou didst fearful things we could not expect, Thou earnest down at thy presence, mountains, quaked.
