Psalms 29

1 A Psalm of David. Give unto Jehovah, ye sons of the mighty ones, give unto Jehovah glory and strength;

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

2 Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name; worship Jehovah in holy splendour.

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

3 The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth, — Jehovah upon great waters.

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

4 The voice of Jehovah is powerful; the voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.

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

5 The voice of Jehovah breaketh cedars; yea, Jehovah breaketh the cedars of Lebanon:

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

6 And he maketh them to skip like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion like a young buffalo.

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

7 The voice of Jehovah cleaveth out flames of fire.

The voice of the LORD strikes with flames of fire.

8 The voice of Jehovah shaketh the wilderness; Jehovah shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

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

9 The voice of Jehovah maketh the hinds to calve, and layeth bare the forests; and in his temple doth every one say, Glory!

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

10 Jehovah sitteth upon the flood; yea, Jehovah sitteth as king for ever.

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

11 Jehovah will give strength unto his people; Jehovah will bless his people with peace.

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