Psalms 29

1 A Psalm of David [on the occasion] of the solemn assembly of the Tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, ye sons of God, bring to the Lord young rams; bring to the Lord glory and honour.

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

2 Bring to the Lord glory, [due] to his name; worship the lord in his holy court.

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 upon the waters: the God of glory has thundered: the Lord is upon 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 mighty; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.

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

5 [There is] the voice of the Lord who breaks the cedars; the Lord will break the cedars of Libanus.

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

6 And he will beat them small, [even] Libanus itself, like a calf; and the beloved one is as a young unicorn.

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

7 [There is] a voice of the Lord who divides a flame of fire.

The voice of the Lord heweth out flames of fire.

8 A voice of the Lord who shakes the wilderness; the Lord will shake the wilderness of Cades.

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

9 The voice of the Lord strengthens the hinds, and will uncover the thickets: and in his temple every one speaks [of his] 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 will dwell on the waterflood: and the Lord will sit a king for ever.

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

11 The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.

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