詩篇 29

1 天主的眾子，請讚美上主，請將讚美光榮，歸於上主。

You angels in heaven, praise Yahweh! Praise him because he is very glorious and powerful.

2 請將主的榮耀，歸於上主，穿上聖潔華服，朝拜上主。

Proclaim that (he/his name) is glorious; bow down before Yahweh in his holy [temple].

3 上主的聲音響徹水面，天主雷鳴在顯示莊嚴，上主臨到澎湃的水面。

Yahweh’s voice is heard above the oceans; Yahweh, the glorious God, thunders. His voice thunders over the huge oceans [DOU].

4 上主的聲音具有威權，上主的聲音具有莊嚴。

His voice is powerful and majestic.

5 上主的聲音劈斷香柏，上主折斷黎巴嫩香柏；

The sound of Yahweh’s voice breaks great cedar trees, the cedars that grow in Lebanon.

6 使黎巴嫩像牛犢一樣舞蹈，使息爾翁像小牛一樣跳躍。

He causes [the mountains in] Lebanon to jump like calves jump, and causes Hermon [Mountain] to jump like a young bull jumps.

7 上主的聲音放射出火舌。

Yahweh’s voice causes lightning to flash.

8 上主的聲音震動了曠野，上主震動了卡士德曠野。

His voice causes the desert to shake; he shakes Kadesh Desert [in the southern part of Judah].

9 上主的聲音搖撼橡樹，剝光森林；凡在祂殿中的都齊聲高呼：光榮。

Yahweh’s voice shakes the huge oak trees and strips the leaves from the trees while the people in the temple shout, “Praise [God]!”

10 上主坐在洪水之上，上主永遠高坐為王。

Yahweh ruled over the flood [that covered the earth]; he is our King who will rule forever.

11 上主必將勇力賜給祂的百姓，上主必以平安祝福祂的人民。

Yahweh enables his people to be strong, and he blesses them by causing things to go well for them.
