Psalms 29

29 ¹ Ascribe to our Father, you heavenly beings, ascribe to our Father glory and strength. ^a a v1 "Heavenly beings" translates a Hebrew phrase for the angelic host — the members of our Father's heavenly court, called here to worship him. ² Ascribe to our Father the glory due his name; worship our Father in the splendor of holiness.

³ The voice of our Father is over the waters; the Father of glory thunders, our Father over the mighty waters. ⁴ The voice of our Father is powerful; the voice of our Father is full of majesty. ⁵ The voice of our Father breaks the cedars; our Father shatters the cedars of Lebanon. ⁶ He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox. ⁷ The voice of our Father flashes forth flames of fire. ⁸ The voice of our Father shakes the wilderness; our Father shakes the wilderness of Kadesh. ⁹ The voice of our Father makes the deer give birth and strips the forests bare; and in his temple all cry, "Glory!"

¹⁰ Our Father sits enthroned over the flood; our Father sits enthroned as king forever. ¹¹ May our Father give strength to his people! May our Father bless his people with peace!
