Psalms 29

A psalm of David.

1Ascribe to Yahweh, O sons of God, ascribe to Yahweh glory and strength.

2Ascribe to Yahweh the glory due his name; worship Yahweh in holy splendor.

3The voice of Yahweh is over the waters; the God of glory thunders; Yahweh is over many waters.

4The voice of Yahweh is powerful; the voice of Yahweh is majestic.

5The voice of Yahweh breaks cedars; Yahweh shatters the cedars of Lebanon.

6He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox.

7The voice of Yahweh splits flames of fire.

8The voice of Yahweh shakes the wilderness; Yahweh shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.

9The voice of Yahweh makes the deer give birth and strips the forests bare, and in his temple all say, “Glory!”

10Yahweh sat enthroned over the flood; Yahweh sits enthroned as King forever.

11Yahweh gives strength to his people; Yahweh blesses his people with peace.
