A Psalm of David.

1Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.a

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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