Psalm 93 - New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

Psalm 93

The Majesty of God’s Rule

1 The Lord is king; he is robed in majesty;
the Lord is robed; he is girded with strength.
He has established the world; it shall never be moved;(A)
2 your throne is established from of old;
you are from everlasting.(B)

3 The floods have lifted up, O Lord,
the floods have lifted up their voice;
the floods lift up their roaring.
4 More majestic than the thunders of mighty waters,
more majestic than the waves[a] of the sea,
majestic on high is the Lord!(C)

5 Your decrees are very sure;
holiness befits your house,
O Lord, forevermore.(D)
