God came from Teman,
The Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah

His glory covered the heavens,
And the earth was full of His praise.
His brightness was like the light;
He had rays flashing from His hand,
And there His power was hidden.
Before Him went pestilence,
And fever followed at His feet.

He stood and measured the earth;
He looked and startled the nations.
(A)And the everlasting mountains were scattered,
The perpetual hills bowed.
His ways are everlasting.
I saw the tents of Cushan in affliction;
The curtains of the land of Midian trembled.

(D)Before him went pestilence,
    and plague followed (E)at his heels.[a]
He stood (F)and measured the earth;
    he looked and shook the nations;
then the (G)eternal mountains (H)were scattered;
    the everlasting hills sank low.
    His were (I)the everlasting ways.
I saw the tents of (J)Cushan in affliction;
    (K)the curtains of the land of Midian did tremble.
