Psalm 29: 1-11

March 20, 2024 12:01 AM

A psalm of David.

Ascribe to the Lord, you heavenly beings,     ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;     worship the Lord in the splendor of his[a] holiness.


The voice of the Lord is over the waters;     the God of glory thunders,     the Lord thunders over the mighty waters. The voice of the Lord is powerful;     the voice of the Lord is majestic. The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;     the Lord breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon. He makes Lebanon leap like a calf,     Sirion[b] like a young wild ox. The voice of the Lord strikes     with flashes of lightning. The voice of the Lord shakes the desert;     the Lord shakes the Desert of Kadesh. The voice of the Lord twists the oaks[c]     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 forever. 11 The Lord gives strength to his people;     the Lord blesses his people with peace.
