Psalm 93
Translated by George Wither (1632) · From The Psalmes of David Translated into Lyrick-Verse (1632)
THe Lord is King, & weareth
A Robe of Glory bright;
He cloth'd with strength appeareth,
And, girt with powrfull might.
The Earth, he so hath grounded,
That, moov'd it cannot be;
His Throne, long since was founded,
More old then Time, is he.
The waters, highly flowed,
And raisd their voice, oh Lord;
The seas, their furie showed,
And, loud their Billowes roar'd:
But, God, in strength excelleth
Strong seas, & powrfull deeps;
With him, still, purenes dwelleth,
And, firm his Truth he keeps.
