| 1 | O that thou wouldst rend the heavens and come down, that the mountains might quake at thy presence -- |
| 2 | as when fire kindles brushwood and the fire causes water to boil -- to make thy name known to thy adversaries, and that the nations might tremble at thy presence! |
| 3 | When thou didst terrible things which we looked not for, thou camest down, the mountains quaked at thy presence. |
| 4 | From of old no one has heard or perceived by the ear, no eye has seen a God besides thee, who works for those who wait for him. |
