They float[fn] on the surface of the water.
Their section of the land is cursed,
so that they never go to their vineyards.

and whistles for them from the ends of the earth.
Look — how quickly and swiftly they come!

in reed vessels over the water.

than eagles in the sky;
they relentlessly pursued us over the mountains
and ambushed us in the wilderness.
And also: Tyre, Sidon, and all the territories of Philistia — what are you to me? Are you paying me back or trying to get even with me? I will quickly bring retribution on your heads.
Escape will fail the swift,
the strong one will not maintain his strength,
and the warrior will not save his life.
