45 The two words can form a nominal hendiadys, “a dreadful fear,” though most English versions retain the two separate terms.
46 The form is an imperfect.
47 The adjective is in construct form and governs the noun “arm” (“arm” being the anthropomorphic expression for what God did). See §132.c.
48 For a study of the words for fear, see N. Waldman, “A Comparative Note on Exodus 15:14–16,” 66 (1976): 189–92.
49 Clauses beginning with עַד (’ad) express a limit that is not absolute, but only relative, beyond which the action continues ( §138.g).
50 The verb קָנָה (qanah) here is the verb “acquire, purchase,” and probably not the homonym “to create, make” (see Gen 4:1; Deut 32:6; and Prov 8:22).
51 The verb is imperfect.
52 The “mountain” and the “place” would be wherever Yahweh met with his people. It here refers to Canaan, the land promised to the patriarchs.
53 The verb is perfect tense, referring to Yahweh’s previous choice of the holy place.

Terror and dread fall upon them;

because of the greatness of your arm, they are still as a stone,

till your people, O Lord, pass by,

the place, O Lord, which you have made for your abode,

the sanctuary, O Lord, which your hands have established.

a sanctuary, Lord, that your hands established.

In the place, O Lord, which thou hast made for thee to dwell in,

In the Sanctuary, O Lord, which thy hands have established.
