He is clothed with majesty;
Jehovah is clothed with strength; he hath girded himself therewith:
The world also is established, that it cannot be moved.
2Thy throne is established of old:
Thou art from everlasting.
3The floods have lifted up, O Jehovah,
The floods have lifted up their voice;
The floods lift up their waves.
4Above the voices of many waters,
The mighty breakers of the sea,
Jehovah on high is mighty.
5Thy testimonies are very sure:
Holiness becometh thy house, O Jehovah, for evermore.

About American Standard VersionThe ASV has long been regarded by many scholars as the most literal English translation since the King James Version—maybe the most literal translation ever. This has made the translation very popular for careful English Bible study, but not for ease of reading. While the KJV was translated entirely from “western manuscripts,” the ASV 1901 was influenced also by the older “eastern manuscripts” that form the basis for most of our modern English translations. Because the ASV 1901 is very difficult to find in print, Logos is pleased to be able to preserve and distribute this significant work. This is an excellent choice for comparative English study. |
