3 There he shattered flames of a bow shield and sword and battle (Selah)

There brake he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)

4 [are] lighted up You [are] majestic more than mountains of prey.

You are more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.

5 They were plundered - [people] mighty of heart they slumbered sleep their and not they found all [the] men of strength hands their.

The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.

6 From rebuke your O God of Jacob [were] sleeping and chariot and horse.

At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.

7 You - [are] to be feared you and who? will he stand before you from then anger your.

You, even you, are to be feared: and who may stand in your sight when once you are angry?

8 From heaven you proclaimed judgment [the] earth it was afraid and it was quiet.

You did cause judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,

9 When arose for judgment God to save all [the] humble [people] of [the] earth (Selah)

When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)

10 For [the] anger of humankind it will praise you [the] remainder of anger you will gird on.

Surely the wrath of man shall praise you: the remainder of wrath shall you restrain.

11 Make vows and pay [them] to Yahweh God your all [those] around him let them bring a gift to the awesome one.

Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God: let all that be round about him bring presents unto him that ought to be feared.

12 He humbles [the] spirit of rulers [he is] to be feared by [the] kings of [the] earth.

He shall cut off the spirit of princes: he is terrible to the kings of the earth.
