Thou didst strip the sheath from thy bow,
    and put the arrows to the string.[a]
                Selah
    Thou didst cleave the earth with rivers.
10 The mountains saw thee, and writhed;
    the raging waters swept on;
the deep gave forth its voice,
    it lifted its hands on high.
11 The sun and moon stood still in their habitation[b]
    at the light of thine arrows as they sped,
    at the flash of thy glittering spear.
