Psalms 93 ASV

Summary: A brief enthronement psalm proclaiming God's kingship in cosmic, almost mythic terms: "The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty... the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved" (v. 1). Its central image is the chaotic power of the sea challenged and overmatched by God's greater strength: "The floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves. The LORD on high is mightier than the noise of many waters" (v. 3-4). It closes affirming that God's testimonies are "very sure" and that holiness befits his house "for ever" (v. 5).

1Jehovah reigneth; he is clothed with majesty; Jehovah is clothed with strength; he hath girded himself therewith: The world also is established, that it cannot be moved.

2Thy throne is established of old: Thou art from everlasting.

3The floods have lifted up, O Jehovah, The floods have lifted up their voice; The floods lift up their waves.

4Above the voices of many waters, The mighty breakers of the sea, Jehovah on high is mighty.

5Thy testimonies are very sure: Holiness becometh thy house, O Jehovah, for evermore.
