- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Sagittæ ejus acutæ, et omnes arcus ejus extenti. Ungulæ equorum ejus ut silex, et rotæ ejus quasi impetus tempestatis.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- ὧν τὰ βέλη ὀξεῖά ἐστιν καὶ τὰ τόξα αὐτῶν ἐντεταμένα. οἱ πόδες τῶν ἵππων αὐτῶν ὡς στερεὰ πέτρα· ἐλογίσθησαν οἱ τροχοὶ τῶν ἁρμάτων αὐτῶν ὡς καταιγίς.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- אֲשֶׁ֤ר חִצָּיו֙ שְׁנוּנִ֔ים וְכָל קַשְּׁתֹתָ֖יו דְּרֻכ֑וֹת פַּרְס֤וֹת סוּסָיו֙ כַּצַּ֣ר נֶחְשָׁ֔בוּ וְגַלְגִּלָּ֖יו כַּסּוּפָֽה
