Psalm 29 | New International Version

A psalm of David.

1 Ascribe to the Lord, you heavenly beings, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

2 Ascribe to the Lord the glory due to his name; worship the Lord in the splendour of his* holiness.

3 The voice of the Lord is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the Lord thunders over the mighty waters.

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

5 The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars; the Lord breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.

6 He makes Lebanon leap like a calf, Sirion* like a young wild ox.

7 The voice of the Lord strikes with flashes of lightning.

8 The voice of the Lord shakes the desert; the Lord shakes the Desert of Kadesh.

9 The voice of the Lord twists the oaks* and strips the forests bare. And in his temple all cry, ‘Glory!’

10 The Lord sits enthroned over the flood; the Lord is enthroned as King for ever.

11 The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses his people with peace.
