PSALM 29
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm of David.
1Give ye unto the Lord, ye sons
that of the mighty be,
All strength and glory to the Lord
with cheerfulness give ye.
2Unto the Lord the glory give
that to his name is due;
And in the beauty of holiness
unto JEHOVAH bow.
3The Lord's voice on the waters is;
the God of majesty
Doth thunder, and on multitudes
of waters sitteth he.
4A pow'rful voice it is that comes
out from the Lord most high;
The voice of that great Lord is full
of glorious majesty.
5The voice of the Eternal doth
asunder cedars tear;
Yea, God the Lord doth cedars break
that Lebanon doth bear.
6He makes them like a calf to skip,
ev'n that great Lebanon,
And, like to a young unicorn,
the mountain Sirion.
7God's voice divides the flames of fire;
8The desert it doth shake:
The Lord doth make the wilderness
of Kadesh all to quake.
9God's voice doth make the hinds to calve,
it makes the forest bare:
And in his temple ev'ry one
his glory doth declare.
10The Lord sits on the floods; the Lord
sits King, and ever shall.
11The Lord will give his people strength,
and with peace bless them all.

Psalms 29

PSALM 29.
1A psalm of a canticle, at the dedication of David's house.
2I will extol thee, O Lord, for thou hast upheld me: and hast not made my enemies to rejoice over me.
3O Lord my God, I have cried to thee, and then hast healed me.
4Thou hast brought forth, O Lord, my soul from hell: thou hast saved me from them that go down into the pit.
5Sing to the Lord, O ye his saints: and give praise to the memory of his holiness.
6For wrath is in his indignation; and life in his good will. In the evening weeping shall have place, and in the morning gladness.
7And in my abundance I said: I shall never be moved.
8O Lord, in thy favour, thou gavest strength to my beauty. Thou turnedst away thy face from me, and I became troubled.
9To thee, O Lord, will I cry: and I will make supplication to my God.
10What profit is there in my blood, whilst I go down to corruption? Shall dust confess to thee, or declare thy truth?
11The Lord hath heard, and hath had mercy on me: the Lord became my helper.
12Thou hast turned for me my mourning into joy: thou hast cut my sackcloth, and hast compassed me with gladness:
13To the end that my glory may sing to thee, and I may not regret: O Lord my God, I will give praise to thee for ever.
