8 But there is one who made the constellations Pleiades and Orion;
he can turn the darkness into morning
and daylight[a] into night.
He summons the water of the seas
and pours it out on the earth’s surface.
The Lord is his name!
9 He flashes[b] destruction down upon the strong
so that destruction overwhelms[c] the fortified places.
