You angels in heaven, praise Yahweh! Praise him because he is very glorious and powerful.

2 Brynge ye to the Lord glorie and onour; brynge ye to the Lord glorie to his name; herie ye the Lord in his hooli large place.

Proclaim that (he/his name) is glorious; bow down before Yahweh in his holy [temple].

3 The vois of the Lord on watris, God of mageste thundride; the Lord on many watris.

Yahweh’s voice is heard above the oceans; Yahweh, the glorious God, thunders. His voice thunders over the huge oceans [DOU].

His voice is powerful and majestic.

5 The vois of the Lord brekynge cedris; and the Lord schal breke the cedris of the Liban.

The sound of Yahweh’s voice breaks great cedar trees, the cedars that grow in Lebanon.

6 And he schal al to-breke hem to dust as a calf of the Liban; and the derling was as the sone of an vnycorn.
