There he broke the flaming arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
4 Frygtelig var du, herlig på de evige Bjerge.
Glorious are you, and excellent, more than mountains of game.
5 De tapre gjordes til Bytte, i Dvale sank de, og kraften svigted alle de stærke Kæmper.

You pronounced judgment to be sh'ma ·heard obeyed· from heaven. The earth feared, and was silent,
9 da Gud stod op til Dom for at frelse hver ydmyg på Jord. (Sela)

10 Thi Folkestammer skal takke dig, de sidste af Stammerne fejre dig.
Surely the wrath of man yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you. The survivors of your wrath are restrained.
