Oaths were sworn over Your1 arrows. Selah
You divided the earth with rivers.
The overflowing of the water passed by.
The deep uttered its voice,
And alifted its hands on high.
At the light of Your arrows they went,
At the shining of Your glittering spear.
For salvation with Your Anointed.
You struck the head from the house of the wicked,
By laying bare from foundation to neck. Selah
The head of his villages.
They came out like a whirlwind to scatter me;
Their rejoicing was like feasting on the poor in secret.
My lips quivered at the voice;
Rottenness entered my bones;
And I trembled in myself,
That I might rest in the day of trouble.
When he comes up to the people,
He will invade them with his troops.
