Prayer of Manasseh 2–5

Thou who hast made the heaven and the earth,

With all the array thereof:

Who hast bound the sea by the word of thy command;

Who hast shut up the Deep, and sealed it

With thy terrible and glorious Name;

Whom all things do dread; yea, they tremble before thy power:

For the majesty of thy glory cannot be borne,

And the anger of thy threatening against sinners is unendurable:
