You have laid Your hand upon me.

that those You love may be delivered.

Mine arm also shall strengthen him.
In that day the Egyptians will be like women.
They will shudder with fear at the uplifted hand
that the Lord almighty raises against them.

Surely the arm of the Lord is not too short to save nor His ear to dull to hear.

I therefore beseech you, brethren, to call on God in righteousness for His hand to rest upon us for our benefits (as stated above).
