Psalms 29

1 [A Psalm by David.] Ascribe to Jehovah, you sons of the mighty, ascribe to Jehovah glory and strength.

A Psalm of David. Give unto Jehovah, ye sons of the mighty ones, give unto Jehovah glory and strength;

2 Ascribe to Jehovah the glory due to his name. Worship Jehovah in holy array.

Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name; worship Jehovah in holy splendour.

3 The voice of Jehovah is on the waters. The God of glory thunders, even Jehovah on many waters.

The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth, — Jehovah upon great waters.

4 The voice of Jehovah is powerful. The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.

5 The voice of Jehovah breaks the cedars. Yes, Jehovah breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.

The voice of Jehovah breaketh cedars; yea, Jehovah breaketh the cedars of Lebanon:

6 He makes them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young, wild ox.

And he maketh them to skip like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion like a young buffalo.

7 The voice of Jehovah strikes with flashes of lightning.

The voice of Jehovah cleaveth out flames of fire.

8 The voice of Jehovah shakes the wilderness. Jehovah shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

The voice of Jehovah shaketh the wilderness; Jehovah shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

9 The voice of Jehovah makes the large trees tremble, and strips the forests bare. In his temple everything says, "Glory."

The voice of Jehovah maketh the hinds to calve, and layeth bare the forests; and in his temple doth every one say, Glory!

10 Jehovah sat enthroned at the Flood. Yes, Jehovah sits as King forever.

Jehovah sitteth upon the flood; yea, Jehovah sitteth as king for ever.

11 Jehovah will give strength to his people. Jehovah will bless his people with peace.

Jehovah will give strength unto his people; Jehovah will bless his people with peace.
