Psalms 89:9

God's power and sovereigntyProtection and safety

7 In the council of the holy ones, God is greatly feared, and awesome above all who surround Him.

8 O LORD God of Hosts, who is like You? O mighty LORD, Your faithfulness surrounds You.

You rule the raging sea; when its waves mount up, You still them.

10 You crushed Rahab like a carcass; You scattered Your enemies with Your mighty arm.

11 The heavens are Yours, and also the earth. The earth and its fullness You founded.
