1 ¶ The LORD reigns, he is robed in majesty; the LORD is robed in strength, he has surrounded himself with it: and the world is firmly established, so that it cannot be moved.

2 Your throne was established long ago: you are from everlasting.

3 The rivers have risen, O LORD, the surging waters have raised their sound; the floods lift up their waves.

4 The LORD on high is greater than the roar of much water, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.

5 The truths you wrote are absolutely trustworthy: holiness is the beauty of your house, O LORD, forever.

Psalm 94

1 ¶ O LORD God, you to whom vengeance belongs; O God, to whom vengeance belongs, shine forth.

2 Rise up, O judge of the earth: give the proud what they deserve.

3 LORD, how long will the wicked, how long will the wicked triumph?

4 How long will they pour out arrogant words? all who do wrong brag about themselves?

5 They trample on your people, O LORD, and persecute your heritage.

6 They kill the widow and the foreigner, and murder the orphan.

7 And they say, The LORD does not see it, the God of Jacob will not notice.

8 Understand this, you mindless ones among the people: and you fools, when will you get wise?

9 Will he who made the ear not hear? will he who formed the eye not see?

10 Will he who punishes the heathen not chastise? will he who teaches man knowledge not know?

11 The LORD knows that what man thinks is meaningless.

12 ¶ Blessed is the man whom you chasten, O LORD, and teach from your word;

13 That you may give him rest after a time of trouble, while a pit is dug for the wicked.

14 For the LORD will not reject his people, nor will he forsake his own.

15 But the decisions of judges will again be righteous: and the upright in heart will all pursue justice.

16 Who will stand up for me against the evildoers? who will rise up for me against the workers of iniquity?

17 If the LORD had not helped me, I would have gone down to silence.

18 When I said, My foot slips; your mercy, O LORD, held me up.

19 When I am filled with many troubling thoughts your comfort cheers my soul.

20 Can the throne of iniquity have fellowship with you, when he uses the law to mask evil?

21 They band together against the life of the righteous, and condemn the innocent to death.

22 But the LORD is my defense; and my God is the rock of my refuge.

23 And he will turn their own iniquity back on them, and will wipe them out by means of their own wickedness; yea, the LORD our God will wipe them out.

Psalm 95

1 ¶ O come, let us sing to the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.

2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and raise a joyful sound to him with psalms.

3 For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

4 The deep places of the earth are in his hand: the strength of the hills is his also.

5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.

6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.

7 ¶ For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. Today if you will hear his voice,

8 Do not harden your heart, as in the provocation, as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:

9 When your fathers tested me, and tried me, although they had seen what I can do.

10 I was grieved with that generation for forty years, and said, They are a people who err in their heart, and have not known my ways:

11 So I swore in my anger that they should never enter into my rest.
