1. The Lord hath reigned, he is clothed with beauty: the Lord is clothed with strength, and hath girded himself. For he hath established the world which shall not be moved.

2. Thy throne is prepared from of old: thou art from everlasting.

3. The floods have lifted up, O Lord: the floods have lifted up their voice. The floods have lifted up their waves,

5. Thy testimonies are become exceedingly credible: holiness becometh thy house, O Lord, unto length of days.
