David's song to Yahweh continues. He uses parallelism to emphasize what he is saying. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-parallelism)

From the lightning before him...ligtning bolts and dispersed them

David continues describing Yahweh, who is coming to save him from his enemies, as a storm. This emphasizes God's power and anger towards David's enemies. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor)

From the lightning before him Coals of fire fell

AT: "Out of his bright light he sent burning coals" or "From his brightness he sent lightning"

He shot arrows...lightning bolts

David compares the lightning from Yahweh's storm to arrows that a soldier would use.
