< 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 unto the Lord, O ye sons of the mighty, ascribe unto 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 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 majesty hath 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 in power; the voice of the Lord in magnificence.
The voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with power; the voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with majesty.
5 The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars: yea, the Lord shall 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 shall reduce them to pieces, as a calf of Libanus, and as the beloved son of unicorns.
And he maketh them skip like a calf; Lebanon and Siryon like young reems.
7 The voice of the Lord divideth the flame of fire:
The voice of the Lord heweth out 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 shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh 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 causeth the hinds to start, and maketh bare forests: and in his temple every thing speaketh [of his] glory.
10 The Lord maketh the flood to dwell: and the Lord shall sit 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.
