Psalms 93
The psalmist proclaims that the LORD reigns, robed in majesty and armed with strength, His throne established from all eternity. Mightier than the roaring seas, the LORD on high is supreme, and His statutes stand forever firm.

| 1 | The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved. | The LORD reigns, He is robed in majesty; the LORD is robed in majesty and armed with strength; indeed, the world is established, firm and secure. |
| 2 | Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting. | Your throne was established long ago; You are from all eternity. |
| 3 | The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves. | The seas have lifted up, LORD, the seas have lifted up their voice; the seas have lifted up their pounding waves. |
| 4 | The LORD on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea. | Mightier than the thunder of the great waters, mightier than the breakers of the sea — the LORD on high is mighty. |
| 5 | Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O LORD, for ever. | Your statutes, LORD, stand firm; holiness adorns Your house for endless days. |
