Psalm
Psalms, 29
A melody of David.*1
1 Ascribe to Jehovah,*1 O YOU sons of strong ones,*2 Ascribe to Jehovah*3 glory and strength.
|
2 Ascribe to Jehovah*1 the glory of his name. Bow down to Jehovah*2 in holy adornment.
|
3 The voice*1 of Jehovah*2 is over the waters; The glorious God*3 himself has thundered. Jehovah*4 is over many waters.
|
4 The voice of Jehovah is powerful; The voice of Jehovah is splendid.
5 The voice of Jehovah is breaking the cedars; Yes, Jehovah breaks the cedars of Lebʹa·non in pieces,
6 And he makes them skip about like a calf, Lebʹa·non and Sirʹi·on*1 like the sons of wild bulls.*2
|
7 The voice of Jehovah is hewing with the flames of fire;
8 The voice of Jehovah itself makes the wilderness writhe, Jehovah makes the wilderness of Kaʹdesh writhe.
9 The voice of Jehovah itself makes the hinds writhe with birth pains And strips bare the forests.*1 And in his temple each one is saying: “Glory!”
|
10 Upon the deluge*1 Jehovah has seated himself; And Jehovah sits as king to time indefinite.
|
11 Jehovah himself will give strength indeed to his people. Jehovah himself will bless his people with peace.
