ESVEnglish Standard Version

Who stirred up one from the east

whom victory meets at every step?

He gives up nations before him,

so that he tramples kings underfoot;

he makes them like dust with his sword,

like driven stubble with his bow.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

“Who has stirred up one from the east,

calling him in righteousness to his service?

He hands nations over to him

and subdues kings before him.

He turns them to dust with his sword,

to windblown chaff with his bow.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Who has stirred up someone from the east?

In righteousness he calls him to serve.

The Lord hands nations over to him,

and he subdues kings.

He makes them like dust with his sword,

like wind-driven stubble with his bow.

NLTNew Living Translation

“Who has stirred up this king from the east,

rightly calling him to God’s service?

Who gives this man victory over many nations

and permits him to trample their kings underfoot?

With his sword, he reduces armies to dust.

With his bow, he scatters them like chaff before the wind.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Who has roused salvation from the east,

summoned him to his foot,

gives nations in his presence,

and subjugates kings?

He makes them like the dust with his sword,

like scattered stubble with his bow.

KJV 1900King James Version

Who raised up the righteous man from the east,

Called him to his foot,

Gave the nations before him, and made him rule over kings?

He gave them as the dust to his sword,

And as driven stubble to his bow.
