Psalm 103:5–7

5 He set the earth on its foundations;

it can never be moved.

6 You covered it with the watery depths as with a garment;

the waters stood above the mountains.

7 But at your rebuke the waters fled,

at the sound of your thunder they took to flight;

5 He set the earth on its foundations,

so that it should never be moved.

6 You covered it with the deep as with a garment;

the waters stood above the mountains.

7 At your rebuke they fled;

at the sound of your thunder they took to flight.

5 Who laid the foundations of the earth,

That it should not be removed for ever.

6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment:

The waters stood above the mountains.

7 At thy rebuke they fled;

At the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.

5 You placed the world on its foundation

so it would never be moved.

6 You clothed the earth with floods of water,

water that covered even the mountains.

7 At your command, the water fled;

at the sound of your thunder, it hurried away.

5 You who laid the foundations of the earth,

So that it should not be moved forever,

6 You covered it with the deep as with a garment;

The waters stood above the mountains.

7 At Your rebuke they fled;

At the voice of Your thunder they hastened away.

5 You built the earth on its foundations

so it can never be moved.

6 You covered the earth with oceans;

the water was above the mountains.

7 But at your command, the water rushed away.

When you thundered your orders, it hurried away.

5 Who laid the foundations of the earth,

That it should not be moved for ever.

6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a vesture;

The waters stood above the mountains.

7 At thy rebuke they fled;

At the voice of thy thunder they hasted away

5 He laid the earth upon its foundations: it shall not be removed for ever. 6 Thou hadst covered it with the deep, as with a vesture; the waters stood above the mountains: 7 At thy rebuke they fled, at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away; —

5 You set the earth on its foundations 

so that it can never be shaken. 

6 You covered the earth with an ocean as though it were a robe. 

Water stood above the mountains 

7 and fled because of your threat. 

Water ran away at the sound of your thunder. 

5 He established the earth on its foundations;

it will never be shaken.

6 You covered it with the deep

as if it were a garment;

the waters stood above the mountains.

7 At Your rebuke the waters fled;

at the sound of Your thunder they hurried away —

5 You set the earth on its foundations,

so that it shall never be shaken.

6 You cover it with the deep as with a garment;

the waters stood above the mountains.

7 At your rebuke they flee;

at the sound of your thunder they take to flight.

5 He established the earth on her foundations,

so that it will not be moved forever and ever.

6 You covered it with the deep as with a garment.

The waters stood above the mountains.

7 At your rebuke they fled;

at the sound of your thunder they ran off.

5 You placed the earth on its foundations.

It can never be moved.

6 You covered it with the oceans like a blanket.

The waters covered the mountains.

7 But you commanded the waters, and they ran away.

At the sound of your thunder they rushed off.

5 He established the earth upon its foundations,

So that it will not totter forever and ever.

6 You covered it with the deep as with a garment;

The waters were standing above the mountains.

7 At Your rebuke they fled,

At the sound of Your thunder they hurried away.
