Psalm 29

Psalm 29 ¹ A psalm of David. Praise the LORD, you angels in heaven. Praise the LORD for his glory and strength.

² Praise the LORD for the glory that belongs to him. Worship the LORD because of his beauty and holiness.

³ The voice of the LORD is heard over the waters. The God of glory thunders. The LORD thunders over the mighty waters.

⁴ The voice of the LORD is powerful. The voice of the LORD is majestic.

⁵ The voice of the LORD breaks the cedar trees. The LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon into pieces.

⁶ He makes the mountains of Lebanon leap like a calf. He makes Mount Hermon jump like a young wild ox.

⁷ The voice of the LORD strikes with flashes of lightning.

⁸ The voice of the LORD shakes the desert. The LORD shakes the Desert of Kadesh.

⁹ The voice of the LORD twists the oak trees. It strips the forests bare. And in his temple everyone cries out, “Glory!”

¹⁰ The LORD on his throne rules over the flood. The LORD rules from his throne as King forever. ¹¹ The LORD gives strength to his people. The LORD blesses his people with peace.
