You brandished your naked bow,
    sated[a] were the arrows at your command.[b]Selah
    You split the earth with rivers.
10 The mountains saw you, and writhed;
    a torrent of water swept by;
the deep gave forth its voice.
    The sun[c] raised high its hands;
11 the moon[d] stood still in its exalted place,
    at the light of your arrows speeding by,
    at the gleam of your flashing spear.
