Verse 15

Psalm 18:15

First … in the original language – Hebrew:
ויראו אפיקי מים ויגלו מוסדות תבל מגערתך יהוה מנשׁמת רוח אפך׃

Next, the English translation that I chose making the Psalm “mine”:

Then at Your command, O LORD, at the blast of Your breath,

the bottom of the sea could be seen,

and the foundations of the earth were laid bare. (nlt)
