3 God is coming from Teman [C near Edom, south of Israel];
    the Holy One comes from Mount Paran [C on the Sinai peninsula south of Israel; the language recalls God’s revelation at Mount Sinai; Deut. 33:2]. Selah

His glory covers the ·skies [heavens],
    and his praise fills the earth.
4 He is like ·a bright light [flashing lightning; or brightness at dawn].
    Rays of light ·shine [flash] from his hand,
    and there he hides his power.
5 ·Sickness [Plague] goes before him,
    and ·disease [pestilence] follows ·behind him [L at his feet].
