Psalms 29

1 A psalm of David. Ascribe to the Lord, you heavenly beings, ascribe to the Lord glory and power

A Psalm of David. Ascribe to Jehovah, ye sons of the mighty, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.

2 Ascribe to the Lord the glory he manifests: bow to the Lord in holy array.

Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the beauty of holiness.

3 The Lord’s voice peals on the waters. The God of glory has thundered. He peals o’er the mighty waters.

The voice of Jehovah [is] on the waters, The God of glory hath thundered, Jehovah [is] on many waters.

4 The Lord’s voice sounds with strength, the Lord’s voice sounds with majesty.

The voice of Jehovah [is] with power, The voice of Jehovah [is] with majesty,

5 The Lord’s voice breaks the cedars, he breaks the cedars of Lebanon,

The voice of Jehovah [is] shivering cedars, Yea, Jehovah shivers the cedars of Lebanon.

6 making Lebanon dance like a calf, Sirion like a young wild ox.

And He causeth them to skip as a calf, Lebanon and Sirion as a son of Reems,

7 The Lord’s voice hews out flames of fire.

The voice of Jehovah is hewing fiery flames,

8 The Lord’s voice rends the desert, he rends the desert of Kadesh.

The voice of Jehovah paineth a wilderness, Jehovah paineth the wilderness of Kadesh.

9 The Lord’s voice whirls the oaks, and strips the forests bare; and all in his temple say ‘Glory.’

The voice of Jehovah paineth the oaks, And maketh bare the forests, And in His temple every one saith, 'Glory.'

10 The Lord was king at the flood, the Lord sits throned forever.

Jehovah on the deluge hath sat, And Jehovah sitteth king — to the age,

11 The Lord gives strength to his people, he blesses his people with peace.

Jehovah strength to his people giveth, Jehovah blesseth His people with peace!
