Psalms 29
Psalm 29
The Voice of the Lord
A Davidic psalm.
1 Ascribe to Yahweh, you heavenly beings,[a]
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
2 Ascribe to Yahweh the glory due His name;
worship Yahweh
in the splendor of His holiness.[b](a)
3 The voice of the Lord is above the waters.
The God of glory thunders—
the Lord, above vast waters,(b)
4 the voice of the Lord in power,
the voice of the Lord in splendor.(c)
5 The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;
the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon.(d)
6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf,(e)
and Sirion,[c] like a young wild ox.(f)
7 The voice of the Lord flashes flames of fire.(g)
8 The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;
the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.(h)
9 The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth[d](i)
and strips the woodlands bare.(j)
In His temple all cry, "Glory!"
10 The Lord sat enthroned at the flood;
the Lord sits enthroned, King forever.(k)
11 The Lord gives His people strength;(l)
the Lord blesses His people with peace.(m)
