Bow your heavens, Lord, and descend;[a]
    touch the mountains, and they will smolder.
Send forth lightning and scatter the enemy,[b]
    shoot your arrows and confuse them.
Reach down your hand from your high place;
    rescue me and deliver me from mighty waters,
        from the control of foreigners.[c]
