Psalms 29:8

Kadesh
God's power and sovereignty

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

7 The voice of the LORD strikes with flames of fire.

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!”

10 The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD is enthroned as King forever.
