3 There brake he the arrowes of the bowe, the shielde and the sword and the battell. (Selah)

There he broke the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)

7 Thou, euen thou art to be feared: and who shall stand in thy sight, when thou art angrie!

Thou, [even] thou, [art] to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?

8 Thou didest cause thy iudgement to bee heard from heauen: therefore the earth feared and was still,

When God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)

10 Surely the rage of man shall turne to thy praise: the remnant of the rage shalt thou restrayne.

11 Vowe and performe vnto the Lord your God, all ye that be rounde about him: let them bring presents vnto him that ought to be feared.

Vow, and pay to the LORD your God: let all that are about him bring presents to him that ought to be feared.
