God Reigns

93 The Lord reigns! He is clothed in majesty;
    the Lord is clothed,
        and he is girded[a] with strength.
Indeed, the world is well established,
    and cannot be shaken.
Your throne has been established since time immemorial;
    you are king from eternity.
The rivers have flooded, Lord;
    the rivers have spoken aloud,
        the rivers have lifted up their crushing waves.
More than the sound of surging waters—
    the majestic waves of the sea—
        the Lord on high is majestic.

Your decrees are very trustworthy,
    and holiness always befits your house, Lord.
