Psalms 29
1 A psalm of David. Honor the Lord, children of God, honor his glory and strength.
A Melody of David. Give to Yahweh, ye sons of the mighty, —Give to Yahweh, [both] glory and strength:
2 Honor the Lord for his glorious character, bow in reverence to the Lord in his brilliant holiness.
Give to Yahweh, the glory of his Name, Bow down to Yahweh, in the adornment of holiness.
3 The Lord's voice sounds over the sea. The God of glory thunders. The Lord thunders over the vast ocean.
The voice of Yahweh, is upon the waters, —The GOD of glory, hath thundered, Yahweh, is upon mighty waters;
4 The Lord's voice is powerful; the Lord's voice is majestic;
The voice of Yahweh, is with power, The voice of Yahweh, is with majesty;
5 the Lord's voice shatters the cedars, even breaking the cedars of Lebanon.
The voice of Yahweh, is breaking cedars, Now hath Yahweh, broken down, the cedars of Lebanon!
6 He makes the mountains of Lebanon skip like a calf, and Mount Hermon like a young wild ox.
And hath made them leap like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion, like the bull-calf of wild-oxen;
7 The Lord's voice blazes out like lightning flashes.
The voice of Yahweh, is cleaving out flames of fire;
8 The Lord's voice causes an earthquake in the desert; the desert of Kadesh shakes.
The voice of Yahweh, bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness; Yahweh bringeth birth-pains upon the wilderness of Kadesh!
9 The Lord's voice makes the pregnant deer go into labor; it strips bare the forests. In his Temple all the worshipers shout, “Glory!”
The voice of Yahweh, causeth the gazelles to bring forth, and hath stript forests; and, in his own temple, every one there, is saying, Glory!
10 The Lord sits on his throne above the floodwaters; the Lord is the eternal King.
Yahweh, at the Flood, was seated, And Yahweh hath taken his seat, as king, unto times age-abiding.
11 The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses them with peace.
Yahweh, will give, strength to his people, —Yahweh, will bless his people with prosperity.
