2  O Lord, ^xI have heard the report of you,

and ^yyour work, O Lord, do I fear.

In the midst of the years ^zrevive it;

in the midst of the years make it known;

^ain wrath remember mercy.

3  God came from ^bTeman,

^cand the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah

His splendor covered the heavens,

and the earth was full of his praise.

4  ^dHis brightness was like the light;

rays flashed from his hand;

and there he veiled his power.

9  You stripped the sheath from your bow,

calling for many arrows.¹ Selah

^pYou split the earth with rivers.

10  ^qThe mountains saw you and writhed;

the raging waters swept on;

^rthe deep gave forth its voice;

^sit lifted its hands on high.

11  ^tThe sun and moon stood still in their place

^uat the light of your arrows as they sped,

at the flash of your glittering spear.
