Psalm 29

Psalm 29

The Voice of God in a Great Storm

A Psalm of David.

¹Ascribe to the Lord, O heavenly beings,^y

ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.^*

²Ascribe to the Lord the glory of his name;

worship the Lord in holy splendor.^*

³The voice of the Lord is over the waters;

the God of glory thunders,

the Lord, over mighty waters.^*

⁴The voice of the Lord is powerful;

the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.^*

⁵The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;

the Lord breaks the cedars of Lebanon.^*

⁶He makes Lebanon skip like a calf

and Sirion like a young wild ox.^*

⁷The voice of the Lord flashes forth flames of fire.

⁸The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;

the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.^*

⁹The voice of the Lord causes the oaks to whirl^z

and strips the forest bare,

and in his temple all say, “Glory!”^*

¹⁰The Lord sits enthroned over the flood;

the Lord sits enthroned as king forever.^*

¹¹May the Lord give strength to his people!

May the Lord bless his people with peace!^*
