PSAL. XXIX. A Psalm of David. (Book 29)

GIve ye unto the Lord, ye sons that of the mighty be, All strength and glory to the Lord, with cheerfulnesse give ye. Unto the Lord the glory give,Line 2 that to his Name is due; And in the beautie of holinesse, unto Jehovah bow.
The Lords voice on the waters is:Line 3 the God of majestie Doth thunder, and on multitudes

of waters sitteth He. A pow'rfull voice it is, that comesLine 4 out from the Lord most hie; The voice of that great Lord is full of glorious majestie.
The voice of the Eternall doth asunder cedars tear: Yea, God the Lord doth cedars break that Lebanon doth bear. He makes them like a calf to skip:Line 6 ev'n that great Lebanon, And like to a young unicorn the mountain Sirion.
Gods voice divides the flames of fire:Line 7 The desert it doth shake:Line 8 The Lord doth make the wildernesse of Kadesh, all to quake. Gods voice doth make the hindes to calve;Line 9 it makes the forrests bare: And in his Temple every one his glory doth declare.
The Lord sits on the flouds: the LordLine 10 sits King, and ever shall. The Lord will give his people strength,Line 11 and with peace blesse them all.
