Psalms 29

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

A psalm for David, at the finishing of the tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, O ye children of God: bring to the Lord the offspring of rams.

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

Bring to the Lord glory and honour: bring to the Lord glory to his name: adore ye the Lord in his holy court.

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

The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of majesty hath thundered, The Lord is upon many waters.

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

The voice of the Lord is in power; the voice of the Lord in magnificence.

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

The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars: yea, the Lord shall break the cedars of Libanus.

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

And shall reduce them to pieces, as a calf of Libanus, and as the beloved son of unicorns.

7 The voice of the LORD strikes with flashes of lightning.

The voice of the Lord divideth the flame of fire:

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

The voice of the Lord shaketh the desert: and the Lord shall shake the desert of Cades.

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

The voice of the Lord prepareth the stags: and he will discover the thick woods: and in his temple all shall speak his glory.

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

The Lord maketh the flood to dwell: and the Lord shall sit king for ever.

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

The Lord will give strength to his people: the Lord will bless his people with peace.
