Psalm 29

Psalm 29

A psalm of David.

¹Honor the Lord, you heavenly beings;

honor the Lord for his glory and strength.

²Honor the Lord for the glory of his name.

Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness.

³The voice of the Lord echoes above the sea.

The God of glory thunders.

The Lord thunders over the mighty sea.

⁴The voice of the Lord is powerful;

the voice of the Lord is majestic.

⁵The voice of the Lord splits the mighty cedars;

the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon.

⁶He makes Lebanon’s mountains skip like a calf;

he makes Mount Hermon leap like a young wild ox.

⁷The voice of the Lord strikes

with bolts of lightning.

⁸The voice of the Lord makes the barren wilderness quake;

the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

⁹The voice of the Lord twists mighty oaks

and strips the forests bare.

In his Temple everyone shouts, “Glory!”

¹⁰The Lord rules over the floodwaters.

The Lord reigns as king forever.

¹¹The Lord gives his people strength.

The Lord blesses them with peace.
