Psalms 29

1 Give unto YHWH, O ye mighty, give unto YHWH glory and strength.

A Psalm. Of David. Give to the Lord, you sons of the gods, give to the Lord glory and strength.

2 Give unto YHWH the glory due unto his name; worship YHWH in the beauty of holiness.

Give to the Lord the full glory of his name; give him worship in holy robes.

3 The voice of YHWH is upon the waters: the El of glory thundereth: YHWH is upon many waters.

The voice of the Lord is on the waters: the God of glory is thundering, the Lord is on the great waters.

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

The voice of the Lord is full of power; the voice of the Lord has a noble sound.

5 The voice of YHWH breaketh the cedars; yea, YHWH breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.

By the voice of the Lord are the cedar-trees broken, even the cedars of Lebanon are broken by the Lord.

6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.

He makes them go jumping about like a young ox; Lebanon and Sirion like a young mountain ox.

7 The voice of YHWH divideth the flames of fire.

At the voice of the Lord flames of fire are seen.

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

At the voice of the Lord there is a shaking in the waste land, even a shaking in the waste land of Kadesh.

9 The voice of YHWH maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.

At the voice of the Lord the roes give birth, the leaves are taken from the trees: in his Temple everything says, Glory.

10 YHWH sitteth upon the flood; yea, YHWH sitteth King for ever.

The Lord had his seat as king when the waters came on the earth; the Lord is seated as king for ever.

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

The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will give his people the blessing of peace.
