King James Version


  1. Give unto the LORD, O ye mighty, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
  2. Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.
  3. The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters.
  4. The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.
  5. The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.
  6. He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.
  7. The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.
  8. The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
  9. The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.
  10. The LORD sitteth upon the flood; yea, the LORD sitteth King for ever.
  11. The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace.

Verse 2


Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.[3]

The same words as verse 2b, worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness, arise in Psalm 96:9. These words form the title of a hymn by Irish clergyman John Samuel Bewley Monsell.[4] Alexander Kirkpatrick comments that

Suggestive as this rendering is, it can hardly be right; and the true sense is that given in [the] Revised Version margin, in holy array.[5]


Theme


Psalm 29 is "a hymn, describing the advent of Yahweh in a storm. (1) The angels worship Yahweh in the heavenly temple (v.1-2); (2) the thunder of Yahweh's voice is a great power (a) on the waters (v.3-4); (b) upon Lebanon and its cedars (v.5-6); (c) upon the wilderness and its forests (v.8-9); (3) Yahweh, enthroned over the Flood, reigns forever and bestows blessings on his people (v.10-11)."[6]

According to Charles and Emilie Briggs, it "seems to belong to the Persian period subsequent to Nehemiah", that is, between 445 and 333 BCE.[7][8][9]


Uses

Book of Common Prayer
