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 to Jehovah, O ye sons of God! Give to Jehovah glory and praise!

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

Give to Jehovah the glory due to his name; Worship Jehovah in holy attire!

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

The voice of Jehovah is heard above the waters; The God of glory thundereth, -Jehovah above the great waters.

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

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 the 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.

Yea, he maketh them to leap like a calf, —Lebanon and Sirion like a young buffalo.

7 The voice of Jehovah strikes with flashes of lightning.

The voice of Jehovah divideth the flames of fire.

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

The voice of Jehovah maketh the wilderness tremble; Yea, Jehovah maketh the wilderness of Kadesh tremble.

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 bring forth, And layeth bare the forests; While, in his palace, every one declareth his glory.

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

Jehovah sitteth above the flood; Yea, Jehovah sitteth king for ever.

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

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