² O Lord, I have heard of your renown,
    and I stand in awe, O Lord, of your work.
In our own time revive it;
    in our own time make it known;
    in wrath may you remember mercy.^(A)
3 God came from Teman,
    the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah
His glory covered the heavens,
    and the earth was full of his praise.^(B)
4 The brightness was like the sun;
    rays came forth from his hand,
    where his power lay hidden.^(C)
5 Before him went pestilence,
    and plague followed close behind.^(D)
6 He stopped and shook the earth;
    he looked and made the nations tremble.
The eternal mountains were shattered;
    along his ancient pathways
    the everlasting hills sank low.^(E)
7 I saw the tents of Cushan under affliction;
    the tent curtains of the land of Midian trembled.
⁸ Was your wrath against the rivers,^[a] O Lord,
    or your anger against the rivers^[b]
    or your rage against the sea,^[c]
when you drove your horses,
    your chariots to victory?^(F)
9 You brandished your naked bow;
    sated^[d] were the arrows at your command.^[e] Selah
    You split the earth with rivers.^(G)
10 The mountains saw you and writhed;
    a torrent of water swept by;
the deep gave forth its voice.
    The sun raised high its hands;^(H)

¹⁷ Though the fig tree does not blossom
    and no fruit is on the vines;
though the produce of the olive fails
    and the fields yield no food;
though the flock is cut off from the fold
    and there is no herd in the stalls,^(B)
18 yet I will rejoice in the Lord;
    I will exult in the God of my salvation.^(C)
