Psalm 29 in modern numbering
1 Ascribe to the LORD, you sons of the mighty, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name. Worship the LORD in holy array.
3 The LORD’s voice is on the waters. The God of glory thunders, even the LORD on many waters.
4 The LORD’s voice is powerful. The LORD’s voice is full of majesty.
5 The LORD’s voice breaks the cedars. Yes, the LORD breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He makes them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young, wild ox.
7 The LORD’s voice strikes with flashes of lightning.
8 The LORD’s voice shakes the wilderness. The LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The LORD’s voice makes the deer calve, and strips the forests bare. In his temple everything says, “Glory!”
10 The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood. Yes, the LORD sits as King forever.
11 The LORD will give strength to his people. The LORD will bless his people with peace.
1 A psalm for David, at the finishing of the tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, O ye children of God: bring to the Lord the offspring of rams.
2 Bring to the Lord glory and honour: bring to the Lord glory to his name: adore ye the Lord in his holy court.
3 The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of majesty hath thundered, The Lord is upon many waters.
4 The voice of the Lord is in power; the voice of the Lord in magnificence.
5 The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars: yea, the Lord shall break the cedars of Libanus.
6 And shall reduce them to pieces, as a calf of Libanus, and as the beloved son of unicorns.
7 The voice of the Lord divideth the flame of fire:
8 The voice of the Lord shaketh the desert: and the Lord shall shake the desert of Cades.
9 The voice of the Lord prepareth the stags: and he will discover the thick woods: and in his temple all shall speak his glory.
10 The Lord maketh the flood to dwell: and the Lord shall sit king for ever. The Lord will give strength to his people: the Lord will bless his people with peace.
