Psalm 29

A Psalm of David.

1Ascribe unto Jehovah, O ye sons of the mighty,

Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength.

2Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name;

Worship Jehovah in holy array.

3The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters:

The God of glory thundereth,

Even Jehovah upon many waters.

4The voice of Jehovah is powerful;

The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.

5The voice of Jehovah breaketh the cedars;

Yea, Jehovah breaketh in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.

6He maketh them also to skip like a calf;

Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild-ox.

7The voice of Jehovah cleaveth the flames of fire.

8The voice of Jehovah shaketh the wilderness;

Jehovah shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

9The voice of Jehovah maketh the hinds to calve,

And strippeth the forests bare:

And in his temple everything saith, Glory.

10Jehovah sat as King at the Flood;

Yea, Jehovah sitteth as King for ever.

11Jehovah will give strength unto his people;

Jehovah will bless his people with peace.

ASV

About American Standard Version

The ASV has long been regarded by many scholars as the most literal English translation since the King James Version—maybe the most literal translation ever. This has made the translation very popular for careful English Bible study, but not for ease of reading. While the KJV was translated entirely from “western manuscripts,” the ASV 1901 was influenced also by the older “eastern manuscripts” that form the basis for most of our modern English translations. Because the ASV 1901 is very difficult to find in print, Logos is pleased to be able to preserve and distribute this significant work. This is an excellent choice for comparative English study.
