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 of David.” Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye sons of the mighty, ascribe unto the Lord glory and strength.

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

Ascribe unto the Lord the glory of his name; bow down to the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

3 The LORD’s voice 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 glory thundereth, the Lord—upon mighty waters.

4 The LORD’s voice is powerful. The LORD’s voice is full of majesty.

The voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with power; the voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with majesty.

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

The voice of the Lord breaketh in pieces the cedars; yea, the Lord shivereth the cedars of Lebanon;

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

And he maketh them skip like a calf; Lebanon and Siryon like young reems.

7 The LORD’s voice strikes with flashes of lightning.

The voice of the Lord heweth out flames of fire.

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

The voice of the Lord shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

9 The LORD’s voice makes the deer calve, and strips the forests bare. In his temple everything says, “Glory!”

The voice of the Lord causeth the hinds to start, and maketh bare forests: and in his temple every thing speaketh [of his] glory.

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

The Lord sat [enthroned] at the flood: and the Lord will sit as 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 unto his people: the Lord will bless his people with peace.
