1The Lord has taken his seat on the throne, clothed with majesty, armed with might. Now the world stands firm, to be shaken no more,
2firm stands your throne from all eternity. You are from everlasting.
3The floods, O Lord, have lifted, the floods have lifted their voice, the floods lift up their roar.
4But more grand than the great roaring waters, more grand than the ocean waves, grand on the height stands the Lord.
5What you have ordained is most sure; most sure shall your house stand inviolate, O Lord, for ever and ever.
