Psalms 29

1 A PSALM OF DAVID. Ascribe to YHWH, you sons of the mighty, Ascribe to YHWH glory and strength.

Give to the LORD, O you mighty, give to the LORD glory and strength.

2 Ascribe to YHWH the glory of His Name, Bow yourselves to YHWH, In the beauty of holiness.

Give to the LORD the glory due to his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

3 The voice of YHWH [is] on the waters, The God of glory has thundered, YHWH [is] on many waters.

The voice of the LORD is on the waters: the God of glory thunders: the LORD is on many waters.

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

The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

5 The voice of YHWH [is] shattering cedars, Indeed, YHWH shatters the cedars of Lebanon.

The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; yes, the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon.

6 And He causes them to skip as a calf, Lebanon and Sirion as a son of Reems,

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

7 The voice of YHWH is hewing fiery flames,

The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire.

8 The voice of YHWH pains a wilderness, YHWH pains the wilderness of Kadesh.

The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

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

The voice of the LORD makes the hinds to calve, and discovers the forests: and in his temple does every one speak of his glory.

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

The LORD sits on the flood; yes, the LORD sits King for ever.

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

The LORD will give strength to his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.
