A psalm of David.
1
Ascribe to the LORD, O mighty ones,
ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
2
Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name;
worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness.
3
The voice of the LORD is 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 cedars;
the LORD breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.
6
He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, Sirion 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 oaks and strips the forests bare.
And in his temple all cry, "Glory!"
10
The LORD sits enthroned over the flood;
the LORD is enthroned as King forever.
11
The LORD gives strength to his people;
the LORD blesses his people with peace.
