For the Lord is great, and exceedingly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.
Who established the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.
The mountains saw thee, and were grieved: the great body of waters passed away. The deep put forth its voice: the deep lifted up its hands.
He stood and measured the earth. He beheld, and melted the nations: and the ancient mountains were crushed to pieces. The hills of the world were bowed down by the journeys of his eternity.
Who hath removed mountains, and they whom he overthrew in his wrath knew it not.
The mountains tremble at him, and the hills are made desolate: and the earth hath quaked at his presence, and the world, and all that dwell therein.
And the mountains shall be melted under him: and the valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, and as waters that run down a steep place.
Sing praise to the Lord on the harp, on the harp, and with the voice of a psalm:
Who turneth the sea into dry land, in the river they shall pass on foot: there shall we rejoice in him.
If he shall overturn all things, or shall press them together, who shall contradict him?
O God my God, look upon me: why hast thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation are the words of my sins.
The praises of David, the son of Jesse, are ended.
