The Hebrew Psalms in English Verse
Psalm 29
Abraham Coles
Give to the Lord, ye sons of might,
Glory and strength — His throne address;
2 Him worship, clothed in robes of light,
The beauty born of holiness.
Ye angel hosts on high proclaim
The dreadful honors of His Name.
3 His voice is on the billowy sea,
Heard in the thunder of its waves,
4 Is full of power and majesty,
Resounding through its countless caves,
And, with its loud and deafening roar.
It shakes and terrifies the shore.
5 Cedars of Lebanon it breaks;
6 They like a calf affrighted skip;
It Lebanon and Hermon makes
Like a young unicorn to trip;
8 The desert, Kadesh, quakes to hear;
9 And hinds untimely calve through fear.
7 His voice it cleaves the lightning's wing;
9 It strips and leaves the forest bare;
And all Creation worshipping
Saith, "Glory! glory!" everywhere:
10 He at the Flood and through all time
Sits King upon His throne sublime.
