| New Living Translation (NLT) | New International Version (NIV) |
| 1 The LORD is king! He is robed in majesty. Indeed, the LORD is robed in majesty and armed with strength. The world is firmly established; it cannot be shaken. | 1 The LORD reigns, he is robed in majesty; the LORD is robed in majesty and is armed with strength. The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved. |
| 2 Your throne, O LORD, has been established from time immemorial. You yourself are from the everlasting past. | 2 Your throne was established long ago; you are from all eternity. |
| 3 The mighty oceans have roared, O LORD. The mighty oceans roar like thunder; the mighty oceans roar as they pound the shore. | 3 The seas have lifted up, O LORD, the seas have lifted up their voice; the seas have lifted up their pounding waves. |
| 4 But mightier than the violent raging of the seas, mightier than the breakers on the shore -- the LORD above is mightier than these! | 4 Mightier than the thunder of the great waters, mightier than the breakers of the sea-- the LORD on high is mighty. |
| 5 Your royal decrees cannot be changed. The nature of your reign, O LORD, is holiness forever. | 5 Your statutes stand firm; holiness adorns your house for endless days, O LORD. |
