A Psalm of David.

1 Give ye unto the Lord, ye sons

that of the mighty be,

All strength and glory to the Lord

with cheerfulness give ye.

2 Unto the Lord the glory give

that to his name is due;

And in the beauty of holiness

unto Jehovah bow.

3 The Lord’s voice on the waters is;

the God of majesty

Doth thunder, and on multitudes

of waters sitteth he.

4 A pow’rful voice it is that comes

out from the Lord most high;

The voice of that great Lord is full

of glorious majesty.

5 The voice of the Eternal doth

asunder cedars tear;

Yea, God the Lord doth cedars break

that Lebanon doth bear.

6 He makes them like a calf to skip,

ev’n that great Lebanon,

And, like to a young unicorn,

the mountain Sirion.

7 God’s voice divides the flames of fire;

8 The desert it doth shake:

The Lord doth make the wilderness

of Kadesh all to quake.

9 God’s voice doth make the hinds to calve,

it makes the forest bare:

And in his temple ev’ry one

his glory doth declare.

10 The Lord sits on the floods; the Lord

sits King, and ever shall.

11 The Lord will give his people strength,

and with peace bless them all.
