< Psalms 93 >
1 The Praise of a Canticle, of David himself. In the time before the Sabbath, when the earth was founded. The Lord has reigned. He has been clothed with beauty. The Lord has been clothed with strength, and he has girded himself. Yet he has also confirmed the world, which will not be moved.
For the day before the Sabbath, when the land was [first] inhabited, the praise of a Song by David. The Lord reigns; he has clothed himself with honor: the Lord has clothed and girded himself with strength; for he has established the world, which shall not be moved.
2 My throne is prepared from of old. You are from everlasting.
Your throne is prepared of old: you are from everlasting.
3 The floods have lifted up, O Lord, the floods have lifted up their voice. The floods have lifted up their waves,
The rivers have lifted up, O Lord, the rivers have lifted up their voices,
4 before the noise of many waters. Wondrous are the surges of the sea; wondrous is the Lord on high.
at the voices of many waters: the billows of the sea are wonderful: the Lord is wonderful in high places.
5 Your testimonies have been made exceedingly trustworthy. Sanctity befits your house, O Lord, with length of days.
Your testimonies are made very sure: holiness becomes your house, O Lord, for ever.
