< Psalms 29 >
1 A Psalm. Of David. Give to the Lord, you sons of the gods, give to the Lord glory and strength.
Give to the LORD, O you mighty, give to the LORD glory and strength.
2 Give to the Lord the full glory of his name; give him worship in holy robes.
Give to the LORD the glory due to his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
3 The voice of the Lord is on the waters: the God of glory is thundering, the Lord is on the great waters.
The voice of the LORD is on the waters: the God of glory thunders: the LORD is on many waters.
4 The voice of the Lord is full of power; the voice of the Lord has a noble sound.
The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.
5 By the voice of the Lord are the cedar-trees broken, even the cedars of Lebanon are broken by the Lord.
The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; yes, the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He makes them go jumping about like a young ox; Lebanon and Sirion like a young mountain ox.
He makes them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.
7 At the voice of the Lord flames of fire are seen.
The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire.
8 At the voice of the Lord there is a shaking in the waste land, even a shaking in the waste land of Kadesh.
The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 At the voice of the Lord the roes give birth, the leaves are taken from the trees: in his Temple everything says, Glory.
The voice of the LORD makes the hinds to calve, and discovers the forests: and in his temple does every one speak of his glory.
10 The Lord had his seat as king when the waters came on the earth; the Lord is seated as king for ever.
The LORD sits on the flood; yes, the LORD sits King for ever.
11 The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will give his people the blessing of peace.
The LORD will give strength to his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.
