The Eternal Reign of the Lord

93 The (A)Lord reigns, He is clothed with majesty;
The Lord is clothed,
(B)He has girded Himself with strength.
Surely the world is established, so that it cannot be [a]moved.
(C)Your throne is established from of old;
You are from everlasting.

The floods have [b]lifted up, O Lord,
The floods have lifted up their voice;
The floods lift up their waves.
(D)The Lord on high is mightier
Than the noise of many waters,
Than the mighty waves of the sea.

Your testimonies are very sure;
Holiness adorns Your house,
O Lord, [c]forever.

The Lord Reigns

93 (A)The Lord reigns; he is (B)robed in majesty;
    the Lord is (C)robed; he has (D)put on strength as his belt.
(E)Yes, the world is established; (F)it shall never be moved.
(G)Your throne is established from of old;
    (H)you are from everlasting.

(I)The floods have lifted up, O Lord,
    the floods have lifted up their voice;
    the floods lift up their roaring.
Mightier than the thunders of many waters,
    mightier than the waves of the sea,
    (J)the Lord (K)on high is mighty!

Your (L)decrees are very trustworthy;
    (M)holiness befits your house,
    O Lord, forevermore.

93 De Here is de grote Koning,
Hij is bekleed met koninklijke waardigheid.
Zijn gordel is kracht.
De wereld kan niet wankelen
als God haar beschermt.
Al van eeuwigheid af regeert U op uw troon,
deze staat vast gefundeerd.
Here, het water bruist,
het laat zijn stem horen
en zingt bruisend tot uw eer.
En boven het daverende geluid
van al dat water, van al die zeeën,
is de grootheid van de Here zichtbaar.
Alles wat U zegt, is waar.
Wij kunnen U vertrouwen.
Alles aan U is heilig als een waardevol sieraad.
Dat blijft zo tot in eeuwigheid, Here.
