The Voice of the Lord
A psalm of David.
1Ascribe to the Lord, you heavenly beings,
ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
2Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
worship the Lord
in the splendor of his holiness. ,
3The voice of the Lord is above the waters.
The God of glory thunders —
the Lord, above the vast water,
4the voice of the Lord in power,
the voice of the Lord in splendor.
5The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;
the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon.
6He makes Lebanon skip like a calf,
and Sirion, like a young wild ox.
7The voice of the Lord flashes flames of fire.
8The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;
the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
9The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth ,
and strips the woodlands bare.
In his temple all cry, “Glory! ”
10The Lord sits enthroned over the flood;
the Lord sits enthroned, King forever.
11The Lord gives his people strength;
the Lord blesses his people with peace.
