Psalms 29:1-11

Ascribe to the LORD, O sons of the mighty, Ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; Worship the LORD in the beauty and majesty of His holiness [as the creator and source of holiness]. ¶The voice of the LORD is upon the waters; The God of glory thunders; The LORD is over many waters. The voice of the LORD is powerful; The voice of the LORD is full of majesty. The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; Yes, the LORD breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon. He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, And Sirion (Mount Hermon) like a young, wild ox. The voice of the LORD rakes flames of fire (lightning). The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; The LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh. The voice of the LORD makes the doe labor and give birth And strips the forests bare; And in His temple all are saying, “Glory!” ¶The LORD sat as King at the flood; Yes, the LORD sits as King forever. The LORD will give [unyielding and impenetrable] strength to His people; The LORD will bless His people with peace.
