10 The mountains saw thee, and writhed;
    the raging waters swept on;
the deep gave forth its voice,
    it lifted its hands on high.

    at the flash of thy glittering spear.
12 Thou didst bestride the earth in fury,
    thou didst trample the nations in anger.

    and in anger you threshed(G) the nations.
