- Thy throne is established of old; Thou art from everlasting.
- The floods have lifted up, O LORD, The floods have lifted up their voice; The floods lift up their roaring.
- Above the voices of many waters, The mighty breakers of the sea, The LORD on high is mighty.
- Thy testimonies are very sure, Holiness becometh Thy house, O LORD, for evermore.
