The Complete Jewish Bible CJB
The Bible in Basic English BBE
1 ADONAI is king, robed in majesty; ADONAI is robed, girded with strength; The world is well established; it cannot be moved.
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.
2 Your throne was established long ago; you have existed forever.
2
The seat of your power has been from the past; you are eternal.
3 ADONAI, the deep is raising up, the deep is raising up its voice, the deep is raising its crashing waves.
3
The rivers send up, O Lord, the rivers send up their voices; they send them up with a loud cry.
4 More than the sound of rushing waters or the mighty breakers of the sea, ADONAI on high is mighty.
4
The Lord in heaven is stronger than the noise of great waters, yes, he is stronger than the great waves of the sea.
5 Your instructions are very sure; holiness befits your house, ADONAI, for all time to come.
5
Your witness is most certain; it is right for your house to be holy, O Lord, for ever.
