Before him went the pestilence, and burning coals went forth at his feet.

Was your wrath burning against the rivers? were you angry with the sea, that you went on your horses, on your war-carriages of salvation?

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 stood still in their habitation: at the light of thine arrows they went, and at the shining of thy glittering spear.

You went forth for the salvation of Your people,
For the salvation and rescue of Your anointed [people Israel].
You struck the head from the house of the wicked
To lay him open from the thigh to the neck. Selah (pause, and calmly think of that).
