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 YHWH, you sons of the mighty, Ascribe to YHWH 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 YHWH the glory of His Name, Bow yourselves to YHWH, 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 YHWH [is] on the waters, The God of glory has thundered, YHWH [is] on many waters.

4 The voice of the Lord is in power; the voice of the Lord in magnificence.

The voice of YHWH [is] with power, The voice of YHWH [is] with majesty,

5 The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars: yea, the Lord shall break the cedars of Libanus.

The voice of YHWH [is] shattering cedars, Indeed, YHWH shatters 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 causes them to skip as a calf, Lebanon and Sirion as a son of Reems,

7 The voice of the Lord divideth the flame of fire:

The voice of YHWH is hewing fiery flames,

8 The voice of the Lord shaketh the desert: and the Lord shall shake the desert of Cades.

The voice of YHWH pains a wilderness, YHWH pains 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 YHWH pains the oaks, And makes bare the forests, And in His temple everyone says, “Glory!”

10 The Lord maketh the flood to dwell: and the Lord shall sit king for ever.

YHWH has sat on the flood, And YHWH sits [as] king for all time,

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

YHWH gives strength to His people, YHWH blesses His people with peace!
