bAnd underneath are the everlasting arms;

cAnd He drove out the enemy from before you,

bThe fountain of Jacob secluded,

cIn a land of grain and new wine;

dHis heavens also drop down dew.

29“aBlessed are you, O Israel;

bWho is like you, a people saved by Yahweh,

cWho is the shield of your help

dAnd the sword of your majesty!

eSo your enemies will cower before you,

fAnd you will tread upon their high places.”

ESVEnglish Standard Version

The eternal God is your dwelling place,

and underneath are the everlasting arms.

And he thrust out the enemy before you

and said, ‘Destroy.’

So Israel lived in safety,

Jacob lived alone,

in a land of grain and wine,

whose heavens drop down dew.

Happy are you, O Israel! Who is like you,

a people saved by the Lord,

the shield of your help,

and the sword of your triumph!

Your enemies shall come fawning to you,

and you shall tread upon their backs.”

NIVNew International Version (2011)

The eternal God is your refuge,

and underneath are the everlasting arms.

He will drive out your enemies before you,

saying, ‘Destroy them!’

So Israel will live in safety;

Jacob will dwell secure

in a land of grain and new wine,

where the heavens drop dew.

Blessed are you, Israel!

Who is like you,

a people saved by the Lord?

He is your shield and helper

and your glorious sword.

Your enemies will cower before you,

and you will tread on their heights.”

CSBChristian Standard Bible

The God of old is your dwelling place,

and underneath are the everlasting arms.

He drives out the enemy before you

and commands, “Destroy!”

So Israel dwells securely;

Jacob lives untroubled

in a land of grain and new wine;

even his skies drip with dew.

How happy you are, Israel!

Who is like you,

a people saved by the Lord?

He is the shield that protects you,

the sword you boast in.

Your enemies will cringe before you,

and you will tread on their backs.

NLTNew Living Translation

The eternal God is your refuge,

and his everlasting arms are under you.

He drives out the enemy before you;

he cries out, ‘Destroy them!’

So Israel will live in safety,

prosperous Jacob in security,

in a land of grain and new wine,

while the heavens drop down dew.

How blessed you are, O Israel!

Who else is like you, a people saved by the Lord?

He is your protecting shield

and your triumphant sword!

Your enemies will cringe before you,

and you will stomp on their backs!”

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

The God of ancient time is a hiding place,

and underneath are the arms of eternity,

and he drove out from before you your enemy,

and he said, ‘Destroy them!’

So Israel dwells alone and carefree,

the spring of Jacob in a land of grain and wine;

his heavens even drip dew.

Blessed are you, O Israel.

Who is like you, a people who is saved by Yahweh,

the shield of your help,

and who is the sword of your triumph,

and your enemies, they shall fawn before you,

and you shall tread on their backs.”

KJV 1900King James Version

The eternal God is thy refuge,

And underneath are the everlasting arms:

And he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee;

And shall say, Destroy them.

Israel then shall dwell in safety alone:

The fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine;

Also his heavens shall drop down dew.

Happy art thou, O Israel:

Who is like unto thee, O people saved by the Lord,

The shield of thy help, and who is the sword of thy excellency!

And thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee;

And thou shalt tread upon their high places.
