Mighty rivers are the power of the Lord; Which carry headlong Those that despise Him:

2And entangle their paths, And sweep away their fords:

3And carry off their bodies And destroy their souls.

4For they are more swift than lightning, And more rapid:

5But those who cross them in faith Shall not be moved;

6And those who walk on them without blemish Shall not be afraid.

7For the sign in them is the Lord; And the sign becomes the way of those who cross in the name of the Lord.

8Put on, therefore, the name of the Most High and know Him: And you shall cross without danger, While the rivers shall be subject to you.

9The Lord has bridged them by His word; And He walked and crossed them on foot;

10And His footsteps stand (firm) on the waters, and were not erased; They are as a beam that is firmly fixed.

11And the waves were lifted up on this side and on that; And the footsteps of our Lord Messiah stand (firm), And are not obliterated, And are not defaced.

12And a way has been appointed for those who cross after Him, And for those who agree to the course of His faith; And who adore His name, Hallelujah.
