1
The LORD rules! He is robed in majesty— the LORD is robed, clothed with strength. Yes, he set the world firmly in place; it won't be shaken.
2 your throne is established from of old; you are from everlasting.
2
Your throne is set firm for a very long time. You are eternal!
3 The floods have lifted up, O Lord, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their roaring.
3
LORD, the floods have raised up— the floods have raised up their voices; the floods raise up a roar!
4 More majestic than the thunders of mighty waters, more majestic than the waves of the sea, majestic on high is the Lord!
4
But mightier than the sound of much water, mightier than the sea's waves, mighty on high is the LORD!
5 Your decrees are very sure; holiness befits your house, O Lord, forevermore.
5
Your laws are so faithful. Holiness decorates your house, LORD, for all time.
