“If you have raced with men on foot and they have worn you out, how can you compete with horses? If you stumble in a peaceful land, how will you do in the thickets of the Jordan?
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, then how can you contend with horses? and though in a land of peace you are secure, yet how will you do in the pride of the Jordan?
World English Bible (WEB)
If thou hast run{H7323}{(H8804)} with the footmen{H7273}, and they have wearied{H3811}{(H8686)} thee, then how canst thou contend{H8474}{(H8807)} with horses{H5483}? and if in the land{H776} of peace{H7965}, wherein thou trustedst{H982}{(H8802)}, they wearied thee, then how wilt thou do{H6213}{(H8799)} in the swelling{H1347} of Jordan{H3383}?
Strong's King James

For—with footmen thou hast run, And they weary thee, And how dost thou fret thyself with horses! Even in the land of peace, In which thou art confident—And how dost thou in the rising of Jordan!
