Psalms 29

1 A Psalm by David. Ascribe to Yahweh, you sons of the mighty, ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength.

Give unto the LORD, O all of you mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

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

Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

3 Yahweh’s voice is on the waters. The God of glory thunders, even Yahweh on many waters.

The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thunders: the LORD is upon many waters.

4 Yahweh’s voice is powerful. Yahweh’s voice is full of majesty.

The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

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

The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; yea, the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon.

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

He makes them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn (ox).

7 Yahweh’s voice strikes with flashes of lightning.

The voice of the LORD divides the flames of fire.

8 Yahweh’s voice shakes the wilderness. Yahweh shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

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

The voice of the LORD makes the hinds to calve, and discovers the forests: and in his temple does every one speak of his glory.

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

The LORD sits upon the flood; yea, the LORD sits King for ever.

11 Yahweh will give strength to his people. Yahweh will bless his people with peace.

The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.
