³ God came from Teman,^(A)
    the Holy One^(B) from Mount Paran.^[a](C)
His glory covered the heavens^(D)
    and his praise filled the earth.^(E)
4 His splendor was like the sunrise;^(F)
    rays flashed from his hand,
    where his power^(G) was hidden.
⁵ Plague^(H) went before him;
    pestilence followed his steps.
⁶ He stood, and shook the earth;
    he looked, and made the nations tremble.
The ancient mountains crumbled^(I)
    and the age-old hills^(J) collapsed^(K)—
    but he marches on forever.^(L)
7 I saw the tents of Cushan in distress,
    the dwellings of Midian^(M) in anguish.^(N)

⁸ Were you angry with the rivers,^(O) Lord?
    Was your wrath against the streams?
Did you rage against the sea^(P)
    when you rode your horses
    and your chariots to victory?^(Q)
9 You uncovered your bow,
    you called for many arrows.^(R)
You split the earth with rivers;
¹⁰     the mountains saw you and writhed.^(S)
Torrents of water swept by;
    the deep roared^(T)
    and lifted its waves^(U) on high.

¹¹ Sun and moon stood still^(V) in the heavens
    at the glint of your flying arrows,^(W)
    at the lightning^(X) of your flashing spear.
¹² In wrath you strode through the earth
    and in anger you threshed^(Y) the nations.
¹³ You came out^(Z) to deliver^(AA) your people,
    to save your anointed^(AB) one.
You crushed^(AC) the leader of the land of wickedness,
    you stripped him from head to foot.
¹⁴ With his own spear you pierced his head
    when his warriors stormed out to scatter us,^(AD)
gloating as though about to devour
    the wretched^(AE) who were in hiding.
¹⁵ You trampled the sea^(AF) with your horses,
    churning the great waters.^(AG)
