Prayer of Manasseh 2–5

²you who made heaven and earth

with all their order,

³who shackled the sea by your word of command,

who confined the deep

and sealed it with your terrible and glorious name,^*

⁴at whom all things shudder

and tremble before your power,

⁵for your glorious splendor cannot be borne,

and the wrath of your threat to sinners is unendurable;
