Psalms 29

1 A Psalm of David. Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

“A psalm of David.” Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye sons of the mighty, ascribe unto the Lord glory and strength.

2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness.

Ascribe unto the Lord the glory of his name; bow down to the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

3 The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders; the LORD is heard over many waters.

The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of glory thundereth, the Lord—upon mighty waters.

4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is majestic.

The voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with power; the voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with majesty.

5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; the LORD shatters the cedars of Lebanon.

The voice of the Lord breaketh in pieces the cedars; yea, the Lord shivereth the cedars of Lebanon;

6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox.

And he maketh them skip like a calf; Lebanon and Siryon like young reems.

7 The voice of the LORD strikes with flames of fire.

The voice of the Lord heweth out flames of fire.

8 The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh.

The voice of the Lord shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

9 The voice of the LORD twists the oaks and strips the forests bare. And in His temple all cry, “Glory!”

The voice of the Lord causeth the hinds to start, and maketh bare forests: and in his temple every thing speaketh [of his] glory.

10 The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever.

The Lord sat [enthroned] at the flood: and the Lord will sit as King for ever.

11 The LORD gives His people strength; the LORD blesses His people with peace.

The Lord will give strength unto his people: the Lord will bless his people with peace.
