Psalm 29,
Give unto the Lord,
O you mighty ones,

The voice of the Lord divides the flames of fire.
The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness.
The Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth and strips the forest bare.
And in His temple,
Everyone says,
Glory.
The Lord sat enthroned at the flood and the Lord sits as king forever.
The Lord will give strength to His people.
The Lord will bless His people with peace.
