PSALMS 93--118

 

 

PSALM 93

1 Jehovah hath reigned, He hath put on glory, Put on hath Jehovah strength; He hath girded himself: Also he hath established the world, It shall not be moved.

2 Fixed is thy throne; [Even as] from that time 1 thou art, and from eternity. 2

3 Raised have the floods, O Jehovah! Raised have the floods their voice; Raise shall the floods their waves.

4 By reason of the voices 3 of the great waters Terrible are the waves of the sea: Terrible on high is Jehovah.

5 Thy testimonies are verified exceedingly; To thy house is glory; The holiness of Jehovah is for length of days.


1 "From that time," that is, from the creation of the world mentioned in the previous verse.

2 In explaining this verse, Calvin expresses his approbation of a translation somewhat different: --

"As from eternity thou art,
Even so thy throne hath been erected (or prepared) from that time."

3 "A vocibus." -- Lat. "A cause du bruit." -- Fr.
