Psalm 29

Ascribe Glory to the LORD

A Psalm of David.

1Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings,1

ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.

2Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name;

worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness.2

3The voice of the LORD is over the waters;

the God of glory thunders;

the LORD is heard over many waters.

4The voice of the LORD is powerful;

the voice of the LORD is majestic.

5The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars;

the LORD shatters the cedars of Lebanon.

6He makes Lebanon skip like a calf,

and Sirion 3 like a young wild ox.

7The voice of the LORD

strikes with flames of fire.

8The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness;

the LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh.

9The voice of the LORD twists the oaks 4

and strips the forests bare.

And in His temple all cry, “Glory!”

10The LORD sits enthroned over the flood;

the LORD is enthroned as King forever.

11The LORD gives His people strength;

the LORD blesses His people with peace.
