⁷ All the lands are at rest and at peace;^(A)
    they break into singing.^(B)
8 Even the junipers^(C) and the cedars of Lebanon
    gloat over you and say,
“Now that you have been laid low,
    no one comes to cut us down.”^(D)

⁹ The realm of the dead^(E) below is all astir
    to meet you at your coming;
it rouses the spirits of the departed^(F) to greet you—
    all those who were leaders^(G) in the world;
it makes them rise from their thrones—
    all those who were kings over the nations.^(H)
