Psalms 29:1-9 ▼

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

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

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

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

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

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

7 Yahweh’s voice strikes with flashes of lightning.

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

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