2Yahweh 2 I stand in awe of your deeds, Yahweh. 1 Renew your work in the middle of the years. 2 In the middle of the years make it known. 2 In wrath, you remember mercy. 1

4His 2 Rays shine from his hand, where his power is hidden. 1
5Plague 2 and pestilence followed his feet. 1

17For 2 nor fruit be in the vines, 2 the labor of the olive fails, 2 the fields yield no food, 2 the flocks are cut off from the fold, 2 and there is no herd in the stalls, 1
18yet 2 I will be joyful in the God of my salvation! 1
19Yahweh 2 He makes my feet like deer’s feet, 2 and enables me to go in high places. For the music director, on my stringed instruments.
