"Whyhave your mightyonesbecomeprostrate?They do not standbecausethe LORDhas thrustthem down.
He sentout His arrows,and scatteredthem, And lightningflashesin abundance,and routedthem.
For You have girdedme with strengthfor battle;You have subduedunderme those who roseup against me.
You with Your own handdroveout the nations;Then You plantedthem; You afflictedthe peoples,Then You spreadthem abroad.
Let Godarise,let His enemiesbe scattered,And let those who hateHim fleebeforeHim.
As smokeis drivenaway,[so] drive[them] away;As waxmeltsbeforethe fire,[So] let the wickedperishbeforeGod.

"Alsoher mercenariesin her midstAre like fattenedcalves,For eventhey toohave turnedback[and] have fledaway together;They did not stand[their ground]. For the dayof their calamityhas comeupon them, The timeof their punishment.
"Whyhave I seen[it]? They are terrified,They are drawingback,And their mightymenare defeatedAnd have takenrefugein flight,Withoutfacingback;Terroris on everyside!"Declaresthe LORD.
