For the yoke of his burden,

and the staff for his shoulder,

the rod of his oppressor,

you have broken as on the day of Midian.

the yoke that burdens them,

the bar across their shoulders,

the rod of their oppressor.

just as you did on the day of Midian.

and lift the heavy burden from their shoulders.

You will break the oppressor’s rod,

just as you did when you destroyed the army of Midian.

and the stick of its shoulder,

the rod of its oppressor, on the day of Midian.
