Psalmen 93

1 Jahweh is Koning! Jahweh heeft Zich met hoogheid bekleed, En met kracht Zich omgord. De aarde staat onwankelbaar vast,

Yahweh, you are the King! You are majestic, and the power that you have is [like] [MET] a robe that a king wears. You put the world firmly in place, and it will never be moved/shaken.

2 Maar vóór alle tijd staat uw troon; Gij zijt van eeuwigheid af!

You ruled as king a very long time ago; you have always existed.

3 De stromen verheffen, o Jahweh, De stromen verheffen hun stem, De stromen verheffen hun bruisen.

Yahweh, [when you created the world, you separated] the water from [the chaotic mass and formed oceans], and the waves of the waters [of those oceans] still roar,

4 Maar boven het druisen der machtige wateren, Boven de ontzaglijke branding der zee, Zijt Gij ontzaglijk in den hoge, o Jahweh!

[but] you are greater than the roar of those oceans, more powerful than the ocean waves! You are Yahweh, the one who is greater than any other god!

5 Onveranderlijk blijven uw wetten, Heiligheid past aan uw huis, Tot in lengte van dagen, o Jahweh!

Yahweh, your laws never change, and your temple has always been holy/sacred. And that will be true forever.
