< Psalms 29 >
1 [A Psalm by David.] Ascribe to Jehovah, you sons of the mighty, ascribe to Jehovah glory and strength.
A Melody of David. Give to Yahweh, ye sons of the mighty, —Give to Yahweh, [both] glory and strength:
2 Ascribe to Jehovah the glory due to his name. Worship Jehovah in holy array.
Give to Yahweh, the glory of his Name, Bow down to Yahweh, in the adornment of holiness.
3 The voice of Jehovah is on the waters. The God of glory thunders, even Jehovah on many waters.
The voice of Yahweh, is upon the waters, —The GOD of glory, hath thundered, Yahweh, is upon mighty waters;
4 The voice of Jehovah is powerful. The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.
The voice of Yahweh, is with power, The voice of Yahweh, is with majesty;
5 The voice of Jehovah breaks the cedars. Yes, Jehovah breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.
The voice of Yahweh, is breaking cedars, Now hath Yahweh, broken down, the cedars of Lebanon!
6 He makes them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young, wild ox.
And hath made them leap like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion, like the bull-calf of wild-oxen;
7 The voice of Jehovah strikes with flashes of lightning.
The voice of Yahweh, is cleaving out flames of fire;
8 The voice of Jehovah shakes the wilderness. Jehovah shakes 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 Jehovah makes the large trees tremble, and strips the forests bare. In his temple everything says, "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 Jehovah sat enthroned at the Flood. Yes, Jehovah sits as King forever.
Yahweh, at the Flood, was seated, And Yahweh hath taken his seat, as king, unto times age-abiding.
11 Jehovah will give strength to his people. Jehovah will bless his people with peace.
Yahweh, will give, strength to his people, —Yahweh, will bless his people with prosperity.
