Psalms 93:3

The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.

Ver. 3. The floods have lifted up, O Lord] Armies of enemies have attempted great matters, but thou hast soon quelled and quashed them. Immota manet may well be the Church's motto.

Aura tonet, sonet unda marls, fremat orbis et orcus;

Tu tamen insertos nos tibi, Christe, tegis.

The floods lift up their waves ] The word for waves hath its name from dashing or breaking (Anaphora); the enemies do but beat themselves into foam and froth against Christ the rock, qui instar rupis quae in mari vadoso, horridi Iovis, et irati, ut ita dicam, Neptuni fervidis assultibus undique verberata, non cedit aut minuitur, sed obtendit assuetum fluctibus latus; et firma duritie tumentis undae impetum sustinet ac frangit (Woverius).
