PSALM 29

    ¹A David psalm.

    Grant to the LORD, O sons of God,

          grant to the LORD glory and strength!

    ²Grant to the LORD His name’s glory.

          Bow to the LORD in holy majesty!

    ³The LORD’s voice is over the waters.

          The God of glory thunders.

                The LORD is over the mighty waters.

    ⁴The LORD’s voice in power,

          the LORD’s voice in majesty,

    ⁵the LORD’s voice breaking cedars,

          the LORD shatters the Lebanon cedars,

    ⁶and He makes Lebanon dance like a calf,

          Sirion like a young wild ox.

    ⁷The LORD’s voice hews flames of fire.

    ⁸The LORD’s voice makes the wilderness shake,

          the LORD makes the Kadesh Wilderness shake.

    ⁹The LORD’s voice brings on the birth pangs of does

          and lays bare the forests.

                And in His palace all says glory.

    ¹⁰The LORD was enthroned at the flood

          and the LORD is enthroned as king for all time.

    ¹¹May the LORD give strength to His people.

          May the LORD bless His people with peace.
