Psalms 29
29
1-2Bravo, God, bravo!
Gods and all angels shout, “Encore!”
In awe before the glory,
in awe before God’s visible power.
Stand at attention!
Dress your best to honor him!
3 God thunders across the waters,
Brilliant, his voice and his face, streaming brightness—
God, across the flood waters.
4 God’s thunder tympanic,
God’s thunder symphonic.
5 God’s thunder smashes cedars,
God topples the northern cedars.
6The mountain ranges skip like spring colts,
The high ridges jump like wild kid goats.
7-8 God’s thunder spits fire.
God thunders, the wilderness quakes;
He makes the desert of Kadesh shake.
9 God’s thunder sets the oak trees dancing
A wild dance, whirling; the pelting rain strips their branches.
We fall to our knees—we call out, “Glory!”
10Above the floodwaters is God’s throne
from which his power flows,
from which he rules the world.
11 God makes his people strong.
God gives his people peace.

Psalm 29
A psalm by David.
1Give to the Lord, you heavenly beings.
Give to the Lord glory and power.
2Give to the Lord the glory his name deserves.
Worship the Lord in ⌞his⌟ holy splendor.
3The voice of the Lord rolls over the water.
The God of glory thunders.
The Lord shouts over raging water.
4The voice of the Lord is powerful.
The voice of the Lord is majestic.
5The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars.
The Lord splinters the cedars of Lebanon.
6He makes Lebanon skip along like a calf
and Mount Sirion like a wild ox.
7The voice of the Lord strikes with flashes of lightning.
8The voice of the Lord makes the wilderness tremble.
The Lord makes the wilderness of Kadesh tremble.
9The voice of the Lord splits the oaks
and strips ⌞the trees of⌟ the forests bare.
Everyone in his temple is saying, “Glory!”
10The Lord sat enthroned over the flood.
The Lord sits enthroned as king forever.
11The Lord will give power to his people.
The Lord will bless his people with peace.
