O Lord, I have heard the report about You and I fear.
O Lord, revive Your work in the midst of the years,
In the midst of the years make it known;
In wrath [earnestly] remember compassion and love.


God [approaching from Sinai] comes from Teman (Edom),
And the Holy One from [a]Mount Paran. Selah ([b]pause, and calmly think of that).
His splendor and majesty covers the heavens
And the earth is full of His praise.

His brightness is like the sunlight;
He has [bright] rays flashing from His hand,
And there [in the sunlike splendor] is the hiding place of His power.
