⁶ You ^(A)covered it with the deep as with a garment;
The waters stood above the mountains.
⁷ At Your rebuke they fled;
At the voice of Your thunder they hastened away.
^8 [a]They went up over the mountains;
They went down into the valleys,
To the place which You founded for them.
⁹ You have ^(B)set a boundary that they may not pass over,
^(C)That they may not return to cover the earth.

^23 (A)Truly, in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills,
And from the multitude of mountains;
^(B)Truly, in the Lord our God
Is the salvation of Israel.

² Therefore we will not fear,
Even though the earth be removed,
And though the mountains be carried into the ^[a]midst of the sea;
^3 (A)Though its waters roar and be troubled,
Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah

¹⁵ If He ^(A)withholds the waters, they dry up;
If He ^(B)sends them out, they overwhelm the earth.
