12 Yet God has been my king from ancient days—God, who makes salvation happen in the heart of the earth!
13 You split the sea with your power.You shattered the heads of the sea monsters on the water.
14 You crushed Leviathan’s heads.You gave it to the desert dwellers for food!
15 You split open springs and streams;you made strong-flowing rivers dry right up.
16 The day belongs to you! The night too!You established both the moon and the sun.
17 You set all the boundaries of the earth in place.Summer and winter? You made them!
18 So remember this, Lord:how enemies have insulted you,how unbelieving fools have abused your name.
