< Psalms 29 >

1 A Psalm of David [on the occasion] of the solemn assembly of the Tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, you sons of God, bring to the Lord young rams; bring to the Lord glory and honour.
[A Psalm by David.] Ascribe to Jehovah, you sons of the mighty, ascribe to Jehovah glory and strength.
2 Bring to the Lord glory, [due] to his name; worship the lord in his holy court.
Ascribe to Jehovah the glory due to his name. Worship Jehovah in holy array.
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 Jehovah is on the waters. The God of glory thunders, even Jehovah on many waters.
4 The voice of the Lord is mighty; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
The voice of Jehovah is powerful. The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.
5 [There is] the voice of the Lord who breaks the cedars; the Lord will break the cedars of Libanus.
The voice of Jehovah breaks the cedars. Yes, Jehovah breaks in pieces 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.
He makes them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young, wild ox.
7 [There is] a voice of the Lord who divides a flame of fire.
The voice of Jehovah strikes with flashes of lightning.
8 A voice of the Lord who shakes the wilderness; the Lord will shake the wilderness of Cades.
The voice of Jehovah shakes the wilderness. Jehovah shakes 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 Jehovah makes the large trees tremble, and strips the forests bare. In his temple everything says, "Glory."
10 The Lord will dwell on the waterflood: and the Lord will sit a king for ever.
Jehovah sat enthroned at the Flood. Yes, Jehovah sits as King forever.
11 The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.
Jehovah will give strength to his people. Jehovah will bless his people with peace.
