Psalm 104:5-9

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁵ You set the earth on its foundations,
    so that it shall never be shaken.^(A)
6 You cover it with the deep as with a garment;
    the waters stood above the mountains.^(B)
7 At your rebuke they flee;
    at the sound of your thunder they take to flight.
⁸ They rose up to the mountains, ran down to the valleys,
    to the place that you appointed for them.^(C)
9 You set a boundary that they may not pass,
    so that they might not again cover the earth.^(D)
