21 For there the majestic One, Adonai, will be for us—
a place of rivers and wide canals,
on which no boat with oars will go,
nor any mighty ship will travel by.
22 For Adonai is our Judge,
Adonai is our Lawgiver,
Adonai is our King—

    even the lame will carry off plunder.

    the Lord is our lawgiver,(E)
the Lord is our king;(F)
    it is he who will save(G) us.

    the sail is not spread.
Then an abundance of spoils will be divided
    and even the lame(H) will carry off plunder.(I)
