both horse and chariot lie still.

From heaven you pronounced judgment,

and the land feared and was quiet—

when you, God, rose up to judge,

to save all the afflicted of the land.

the earth trembled and stood silent before you.

You stand up to judge those who do evil, O God,

and to rescue the oppressed of the earth.
