1 A PSALM OF DAVID. Ascribe to YHWH, you sons of the mighty, || Ascribe to YHWH glory and strength. 2 Ascribe to YHWH the glory of His Name, || Bow yourselves to YHWH, || In the beauty of holiness. 3 The voice of YHWH is on the waters, || The God of glory has thundered, || YHWH is on many waters. 4 The voice of YHWH is with power, || The voice of YHWH is with majesty, 5 The voice of YHWH is shattering cedars, || Indeed, YHWH shatters the cedars of Lebanon. 6 And He causes them to skip as a calf, || Lebanon and Sirion as a son of Reems, 7 The voice of YHWH is hewing fiery flames, 8 The voice of YHWH pains a wilderness, || YHWH pains the wilderness of Kadesh. 9 The voice of YHWH pains the oaks, || And makes bare the forests, || And in His temple everyone says, “Glory!” 10 YHWH has sat on the flood, || And YHWH sits as king to a distant age, 11 YHWH gives strength to His people, || YHWH blesses His people with peace!
