    “Here is our God!
He is the one we have been waiting for.
    He has come to save us.
We have been waiting for our Lord.
    So we will rejoice and be happy when he saves us.”
10 The Lord’s power is on this mountain,

    with each stroke they take.

10 The hand of the Lord will rest on this mountain;(G)
    but Moab(H) will be trampled in their land

    despite the cleverness[a] of their hands.
