Psalms 74:12

But God has been my ¹  king from ancient times, performing acts of deliverance on the earth. ² 

But you, O God, are my king from of old; you bring salvation upon the earth.

Yet God is my king from of old, Who works deeds of deliverance in the midst of the earth.

You, O God, are my king from ages past, bringing salvation to the earth.

God is my King from the very start; he works salvation in the womb of the earth.

For from the past God is my King, working salvation in the earth.

Yet God my King is from of old, working salvation in the earth.

For God is my King from of old, Working salvation in the midst of the earth.

But God has been my ¹  king from ancient times, performing acts of deliverance on the earth. ²
