Psalms 29

1 “A psalm of David.” Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye sons of the mighty, ascribe unto the Lord glory and strength.

A Melody of David. Give to Yahweh, ye sons of the mighty, —Give to Yahweh, [both] glory and strength:

2 Ascribe unto the Lord the glory of his name; bow down to the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

Give to Yahweh, the glory of his Name, Bow down to Yahweh, in the adornment of holiness.

3 The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of glory thundereth, the Lord—upon mighty waters.

The voice of Yahweh, is upon the waters, —The GOD of glory, hath thundered, Yahweh, is upon mighty waters;

4 The voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with power; the voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with majesty.

The voice of Yahweh, is with power, The voice of Yahweh, is with majesty;

5 The voice of the Lord breaketh in pieces the cedars; yea, the Lord shivereth the cedars of Lebanon;

The voice of Yahweh, is breaking cedars, Now hath Yahweh, broken down, the cedars of Lebanon!

6 And he maketh them skip like a calf; Lebanon and Siryon like young reems.

And hath made them leap like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion, like the bull-calf of wild-oxen;

7 The voice of the Lord heweth out flames of fire.

The voice of Yahweh, is cleaving out flames of fire;

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

The voice of Yahweh, bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness; Yahweh bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness of Kadesh!

9 The voice of the Lord causeth the hinds to start, and maketh bare forests: and in his temple every thing speaketh [of his] glory.

The voice of Yahweh, causeth the gazelles to bring forth, and hath stript forests; and, in his own temple, every one there, is saying, Glory!

10 The Lord sat [enthroned] at the flood: and the Lord will sit as King for ever.

Yahweh, at the Flood, was seated, And Yahweh hath taken his seat, as king, unto times age-abiding.

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

Yahweh, will give, strength to his people, —Yahweh, will bless his people with prosperity.
