ESVEnglish Standard Version

he who removes mountains, and they know it not,

when he overturns them in his anger,

who shakes the earth out of its place,

and its pillars tremble;

who commands the sun, and it does not rise;

who seals up the stars;

who alone stretched out the heavens

and trampled the waves of the sea;

who made the Bear and Orion,

the Pleiades and the chambers of the south;

who does great things beyond searching out,

and marvelous things beyond number.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

He removes mountains without their knowledge,

overturning them in his anger.

He shakes the earth from its place

so that its pillars tremble.

He commands the sun not to shine

and seals off the stars.

He alone stretches out the heavens

and treads on the waves of the sea.

He makes the stars: the Bear, Orion,

the Pleiades, and the constellations of the southern sky.

He does great and unsearchable things,

wonders without number.

NLTNew Living Translation

“Without warning, he moves the mountains,

overturning them in his anger.

He shakes the earth from its place,

and its foundations tremble.

If he commands it, the sun won’t rise

and the stars won’t shine.

He alone has spread out the heavens

and marches on the waves of the sea.

He made all the stars—the Bear and Orion,

the Pleiades and the constellations of the southern sky.

He does great things too marvelous to understand.

He performs countless miracles.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

“He is the one who moves mountains, and they do not know how,

who overturns them in his anger.

He is the one who shakes the earth from its place,

and its pillars tremble.

He is the one who commands the sun, and it does not rise,

and he seals up the stars.

He is the one who alone stretches out the heavens

and who tramples on the waves of the sea.

He is the one who made the Bear and Orion,

the Pleiades and the constellations of the south.

He is the one who does great things beyond understanding

and marvelous things beyond number.

KJV 1900King James Version

Which removeth the mountains, and they know not:

Which overturneth them in his anger.

Which shaketh the earth out of her place,

And the pillars thereof tremble.

Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not;

And sealeth up the stars.

Which alone spreadeth out the heavens,

And treadeth upon the waves of the sea.

Which maketh Arcturus, Orion,

And Pleiades, and the chambers of the south.

Which doeth great things past finding out;

Yea, and wonders without number.
