Psalm 29

New English Translation

   A psalm of David.
   1 Acknowledge the LORD, you heavenly beings, acknowledge the LORD's majesty and power!
   2 Acknowledge the majesty of the LORD's reputation! Worship the LORD in holy attire!
   3 The LORD's shout is heard over the water; the majestic God thunders, the LORD appears over the surging water.
   4 The LORD's shout is powerful, the LORD's shout is majestic.
   5 The LORD's shout breaks the cedars, the LORD shatters the cedars of Lebanon.
   6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf and Sirion like a young ox.
   7 The LORD's shout strikes with flaming fire.
   8 The LORD's shout shakes the wilderness, the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
   9 The LORD's shout bends the large trees and strips the leaves from the forests. Everyone in his temple says, "Majestic!"
   10 The LORD sits enthroned over the engulfing waters, the LORD sits enthroned as the eternal king.
   11 The LORD gives his people strength; the LORD grants his people security.

King James Version

   1 Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
   2 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
   3 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters.
   4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.
   5 The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.
   6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.
   7 The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.
   8 The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
   9 The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.
   10 The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever.
   11 The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.
