< Psalms 29 >
1 A psalm for David, at the finishing of the tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, O ye children of God: bring to the Lord the offspring of rams.
A Psalm of David. Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
2 Bring to the Lord glory and honour: bring to the Lord glory to his name: adore ye the Lord in his holy court.
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness.
3 The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of majesty hath thundered, The Lord is upon many 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 the Lord is in power; the voice of the Lord in magnificence.
The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is majestic.
5 The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars: yea, the Lord shall break the cedars of Libanus.
The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; the LORD shatters the cedars of Lebanon.
6 And shall reduce them to pieces, as a calf of Libanus, and as the beloved son of unicorns.
He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox.
7 The voice of the Lord divideth the flame of fire:
The voice of the LORD strikes with flames of fire.
8 The voice of the Lord shaketh the desert: and the Lord shall shake the desert of Cades.
The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of the Lord prepareth the stags: and he will discover the thick woods: and in his temple all shall speak his glory.
The voice of the LORD twists the oaks and strips the forests bare. And in His temple all cry, “Glory!”
10 The Lord maketh the flood to dwell: and the Lord shall sit king for ever.
The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever.
11 The Lord will give strength to his people: the Lord will bless his people with peace.
The LORD gives His people strength; the LORD blesses His people with peace.
