² Lord, I have heard^(B) of your fame;
    I stand in awe^(C) of your deeds, Lord.^(D)
Repeat^(E) them in our day,
    in our time make them known;
    in wrath remember mercy.^(F)

³ God came from Teman,^(G)
    the Holy One^(H) from Mount Paran.^[b](I)
His glory covered the heavens^(J)
    and his praise filled the earth.^(K)
4 His splendor was like the sunrise;^(L)
    rays flashed from his hand,
    where his power^(M) was hidden.
⁵ Plague^(N) 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^(O)
    and the age-old hills^(P) collapsed^(Q)—
    but he marches on forever.^(R)
7 I saw the tents of Cushan in distress,
    the dwellings of Midian^(S) in anguish.^(T)

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

¹¹ Sun and moon stood still^(AB) in the heavens
    at the glint of your flying arrows,^(AC)
    at the lightning^(AD) of your flashing spear.
¹² In wrath you strode through the earth
    and in anger you threshed^(AE) the nations.
¹³ You came out^(AF) to deliver^(AG) your people,
    to save your anointed^(AH) one.
You crushed^(AI) 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,^(AJ)
gloating as though about to devour
    the wretched^(AK) who were in hiding.
¹⁵ You trampled the sea^(AL) with your horses,
    churning the great waters.^(AM)

¹⁶ I heard and my heart pounded,
    my lips quivered at the sound;
decay crept into my bones,
    and my legs trembled.^(AN)
Yet I will wait patiently^(AO) for the day of calamity
    to come on the nation invading us.
¹⁷ Though the fig tree does not bud
    and there are no grapes on the vines,
though the olive crop fails
    and the fields produce no food,^(AP)
though there are no sheep in the pen
    and no cattle in the stalls,^(AQ)
18 yet I will rejoice in the Lord,^(AR)
    I will be joyful in God my Savior.^(AS)

¹⁹ The Sovereign Lord is my strength;^(AT)
    he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
    he enables me to tread on the heights.^(AU)

For the director of music. On my stringed instruments.

“For your sake we face death all day long;
    we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”^[b](X)
