18 Your mind will meditate on the past terror:
“Where is the accountant?[a]
Where is the tribute collector?[b]

a people whose speech is difficult to comprehend—
who stammer in a language that is not understood.(A)

a peaceful pasture,(B) a tent that does not wander;
its tent pegs will not be pulled up
nor will any of its cords be loosened.(C)
