Psalms 93

1 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.

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 Your throne is prepared of old: you are from everlasting.

firm stands your throne from all eternity. You are from everlasting.

3 The rivers have lifted up, O Lord, the rivers have lifted up their voices,

The floods, O Lord, have lifted, the floods have lifted their voice, the floods lift up their roar.

4 at the voices of many waters: the billows of the sea are wonderful: the Lord is wonderful in high places.

But more grand than the great roaring waters, more grand than the ocean waves, grand on the height stands the Lord.

5 Your testimonies are made very sure: holiness becomes your house, O Lord, for ever.

What you have ordained is most sure; most sure shall your house stand inviolate, O Lord, for ever and ever.
