Psalms 29:10
8 The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of the LORD twists the oaks and strips the forests bare. And in His temple all cry, “Glory!”
The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever.
11 The LORD gives His people strength; the LORD blesses His people with peace.
