Psalms 29:4

God's power and sovereigntyGod's word

2 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness.

3 The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders; the LORD is heard over many waters.

The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is majestic.

5 The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; the LORD shatters the cedars of Lebanon.

6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox.
