| 7Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob. | 7Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob, |
| 8He turned the rock into a pool of water; yes, a spring of water flowed from solid rock. | 8who turns the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of water. |
