21 There the Lord will be our Mighty One.
    It will be like a place of wide rivers and streams.
No boat with oars will travel on them.
    No mighty ship will sail on them.
22 That’s because the Lord is our judge.
    The Lord gives us our law.
The Lord is our king.
    He will save us.

    The mast isn’t very secure.

    Even people who are disabled will carry off some of it.
