< Psalms 93 >
1 The Lord is King; he is clothed with glory; the Lord is clothed with strength; power is the cord of his robe; the world is fixed, so that it may not be moved.
The Lord has taken his seat on the throne, clothed with majesty, armed with might. Now the world stands firm, to be shaken no more,
2 The seat of your power has been from the past; you are eternal.
firm stands your throne from all eternity. You are from everlasting.
3 The rivers send up, O Lord, the rivers send up their voices; they send them up with a loud cry.
The floods, O Lord, have lifted, the floods have lifted their voice, the floods lift up their roar.
4 The Lord in heaven is stronger than the noise of great waters, yes, he is stronger than the great waves of the sea.
But more grand than the great roaring waters, more grand than the ocean waves, grand on the height stands the Lord.
5 Your witness is most certain; it is right for your house to be holy, O Lord, for ever.
What you have ordained is most sure; most sure shall your house stand inviolate, O Lord, for ever and ever.
