Psalms 29

1 A Psalm of David, at the completion of the tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, O sons of God, bring to the Lord the sons of rams.

“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 and honor. Bring to the Lord, glory for his name. Adore 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 over the waters. The God of majesty has thundered. The Lord is 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 in virtue. The voice of the Lord is in magnificence.

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

5 The voice of the Lord shatters the cedars. And the Lord will shatter the cedars of Lebanon.

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

6 And it will break them into pieces, like a calf of Lebanon, and in the same way as the beloved son of the single-horned beast.

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

7 The voice of the Lord cuts through the flame of fire.

The voice of the Lord heweth out flames of fire.

8 The voice of the Lord shakes the desert. And the Lord will quake the desert of Kadesh.

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

9 The voice of the Lord is preparing the stags, and he will reveal the dense woods. And in his temple, all will speak 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 causes the great flood to dwell. And the Lord will sit as King in eternity.

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

11 The Lord will give virtue to his people. The Lord will bless his people in peace.

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