In is God known: his name is great in . In also is his , and his dwelling place in . There brake he the arrows of the bow, the , and the , and the battle. Selah. Thou art more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey. The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept their sleep: and none of the men of might have found their hands.
