1 A Psalm of David. Ascribe to Jehovah, ye sons of the mighty, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.
Give unto Jehovah, ye sons of the mighty ones, give unto Jehovah glory and strength;
2 A scribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the beauty of holiness.
Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name; worship Jehovah in holy splendour.
3 T he voice of Jehovah on the waters, The God of glory hath thundered, Jehovah on many waters.
The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth,—Jehovah upon great waters.
4 T he voice of Jehovah with power, The voice of Jehovah with majesty,
The voice of Jehovah is powerful; the voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.
5 T he voice of Jehovah shivering cedars, Yea, Jehovah shivers the cedars of Lebanon.
The voice of Jehovah breaketh cedars; yea, Jehovah breaketh the cedars of Lebanon:
6 A nd He causeth them to skip as a calf, Lebanon and Sirion as a son of Reems,
And he maketh them to skip like a calf, Lebanon and Sirion like a young buffalo.
7 T he voice of Jehovah is hewing fiery flames,
The voice of Jehovah cleaveth out flames of fire.
8 T he voice of Jehovah paineth a wilderness, Jehovah paineth the wilderness of Kadesh.
The voice of Jehovah shaketh the wilderness; Jehovah shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 T he voice of Jehovah paineth the oaks, And maketh bare the forests, And in His temple every one saith, `Glory.'
The voice of Jehovah maketh the hinds to calve, and layeth bare the forests; and in his temple doth every one say, Glory!
10 J ehovah on the deluge hath sat, And Jehovah sitteth king -- to the age,
Jehovah sitteth upon the flood; yea, Jehovah sitteth as king for ever.
11 J ehovah strength to his people giveth, Jehovah blesseth His people with peace!
Jehovah will give strength unto his people; Jehovah will bless his people with peace.
