13 You came to save your people
    and to lead your chosen king[a] to victory.
You killed the leader in every evil family,
    from the least important person
    to the most important in the land.[b] Selah

14 You used Moses’ walking stick
    to stop the enemy soldiers.

They thought they could defeat us easily,
    as robbing the poor in secret.
15 But you marched your horses
    through the deep water, stirring up the mud.
