Psalms 29

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

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

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

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

3 The voice of Jehovah is on the waters. The God of glory thunders, even Jehovah 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 Jehovah is powerful. The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.

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

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

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

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

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

7 The voice of Jehovah strikes with flashes of lightning.

The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire.

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

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

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

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

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

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