    the waters stood above the mountains.^(A)
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.^(B)
9 You set a boundary that they may not pass,
    so that they might not again cover the earth.^(C)

²³ Truly the hills are^[a] a delusion,
    a tumult on the mountains.
Truly in the Lord our God
    is the salvation of Israel.^(A)

² Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change,
    though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea,^(A)
3 though its waters roar and foam,
    though the mountains tremble with its tumult. Selah^(B)

¹⁵ If he withholds the waters, they dry up;
    if he sends them out, they overwhelm the land.^(A)
