14 You pierced with their[a] own arrows the head[b] of his warriors,[c]
    who came like a whirlwind to scatter us,[d]
    gloating as if ready to devour the poor who were in hiding.
15 You trampled the sea with your horses,
    churning the mighty waters.

16 I hear, and I tremble within;
    my lips quiver at the sound.
Rottenness enters into my bones,
    and my steps tremble[e] beneath me.
I wait quietly for the day of calamity
    to come upon the people who attack us.
