Psalm 29
a Psalm of David
You, Divine beings!
Give to the Lord --
give to the Lord glory and power!
Give to the Lord the glory
due his name!
Bow down to the Lord
in holy splendor!
The Lord's voice is over
the waters; the glorious God
thunders; the Lord is over
the Mighty waters.
The Lord's voice is strong;
The Lord's voice is majestic.
The Lord's voice breaks
cedar trees -- yes, the Lord
shatters the cedars of
Lebanon. He makes
Lebanon jump around like
a young bull, makes Sirion
jump around like a young
wild ox. The Lord's voice
unleashes fiery flames;
The Lord's voice shakes
the wilderness -- yes,
the Lord shakes the
wilderness of Kadesh.
The Lord's voice convulses
the oaks, strips the forests
bare, but in his Temple
everyone shouts, "Glory!"
The Lord sits enthroned
over the floodwaters;
the Lord sits enthroned --
king forever!
Let the Lord give strength
to his people! Let the Lord
bless his people with peace!
