1(29) A Psalm of David [on the occasion] of the solemn assembly of the Tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, you⌃ sons of God, bring to the Lord young rams; bring to the Lord glory and honor.
1Unto thee will I cry, O Lord my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.
2Bring to the Lord glory, [due] to his name; worship the lord in his holy court.
2Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.
3The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory has thundered: the Lord is upon many waters.
3Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.
4The voice of the Lord is mighty; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.
4Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.
5[There is] the voice of the Lord who breaks the cedars; the Lord will break the cedars of Libanus.
5Because they regard not the works of the Lord, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.
6And he will beat them small, [even] Libanus itself, like a calf; and the beloved one is as a young unicorn.
6Blessed be the Lord, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
7[There is] a voice of the Lord who divides a flame of fire.
7The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.
8A voice of the Lord who shakes the wilderness; the Lord will shake the wilderness of Cades.
8The Lord is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.
9The voice of the Lord strengthens the hinds, and will uncover the thickets: and in his temple every one speaks [of his] glory.
9Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.
