29 Because of thy temple at Jerusalem
    kings bear gifts to thee.
30 Rebuke the beasts that dwell among the reeds,
    the herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples.

    scatter the peoples who delight in war.[b]
31 Let bronze be brought from Egypt;
    let Ethiopia hasten to stretch out her hands to God.
