Psalm 29 - KJV and Scottish Metrical Psalter

1    GIVE unto the LORD, O ye might, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

2    Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name;  worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.

3    The voice of the LORD is upon the waters;  the God of glory thundereth:  the LORD is upon many waters.

4    The voice of the LORD is powerful;  the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

5    The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars;  yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.

6    He maketh them also to skip like a calf;  Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.

7    The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.

8    The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness;  the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

9    The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests:  and in his temple doth every one
    speak of his glory.

10    The LORD sitteth upon the flood;  yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever.

11    The LORD will give strength unto his people;  the LORD will bless is people with peace.

    Psalm 29 - KJV

Psalm 29
A Psalm of David.
1 Give ye unto the Lord, ye sons
that of the mighty be,
All strength and glory to the Lord
with cheerfulness give ye.
2 Unto the Lord the glory give
that to his name is due;
And in the beauty of holiness
unto Jehovah bow.
3 The Lord's voice on the waters is;
the God of majesty
Doth thunder, and on multitudes
of waters sitteth he.
4 A pow'rful voice it is that comes
out from the Lord most high;
The voice of that great Lord is full
of glorious majesty.
5 The voice of the Eternal doth
asunder cedars tear;
Yea, God the Lord doth cedars break
that Lebanon doth bear.
6 He makes them like a calf to skip,
ev'n that great Lebanon,
And, like to a young unicorn,
the mountain Sirion.
7 God's voice divides the flames of fire;
8 The desert it doth shake:
The Lord doth make the wilderness
of Kadesh all to quake.
9 God's voice doth make the hinds to calve,
it makes the forest bare:
And in his temple ev'ry one
his glory doth declare.
10 The Lord sits on the floods; the Lord
sits King, and ever shall.
11 The Lord will give his people strength,
and with peace bless them all.
