You put the arrogant ocean in its place

and calm its waves when they turn unruly.

You gave that old hag Egypt the back of your hand,

you brushed off your enemies with a flick of your wrist.

You own the cosmos—you made everything in it,

everything from atom to archangel.

ESVEnglish Standard Version

You rule the raging of the sea;

when its waves rise, you still them.

You crushed Rahab like a carcass;

you scattered your enemies with your mighty arm.

The heavens are yours; the earth also is yours;

the world and all that is in it, you have founded them.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

You rule over the surging sea;

when its waves mount up, you still them.

You crushed Rahab like one of the slain;

with your strong arm you scattered your enemies.

The heavens are yours, and yours also the earth;

you founded the world and all that is in it.

You rule the raging sea;

when its waves surge, you still them.

The heavens are yours; the earth also is yours.

The world and everything in it—you founded them.

You rule the oceans.

You subdue their storm-tossed waves.

The heavens are yours, and the earth is yours;

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

You are ruling the surging of the sea.

When its waves rise, you yourself still them.

You yourself crushed Rahab like one who is slain;

you scattered your enemies with your strong arm.

The heavens are yours, the earth yours as well,

the world with its fullness, because you founded them.

KJV 1900King James Version

Thou rulest the raging of the sea:

When the waves thereof arise, thou stillest them.

Thou hast broken Rahab in pieces, as one that is slain;

Thou hast scattered thine enemies with thy strong arm.

The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine:

As for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.
