Psalms 29

The Voice of God in a Great Storm

A Psalm of David.

1Ascribe to the Lord, O heavenly beings,#29.1 Heb sons of gods

ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

2Ascribe to the Lord the glory of his name;

worship the Lord in holy splendor.

3The voice of the Lord is over the waters;

the God of glory thunders,

the Lord, over mighty waters.

4The voice of the Lord is powerful;

the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.

5The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;

the Lord breaks the cedars of Lebanon.

6He makes Lebanon skip like a calf,

and Sirion like a young wild ox.

7The voice of the Lord flashes forth flames of fire.

8The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;

the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

9The voice of the Lord causes the oaks to whirl,#29.9 Or causes the deer to calve

and strips the forest bare;

and in his temple all say, “Glory!”

10The Lord sits enthroned over the flood;

the Lord sits enthroned as king forever.

11May the Lord give strength to his people!

May the Lord bless his people with peace!
