Ascribe to the Lord the glory due to his name;[a]
    worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness.
The voice of the Lord[b] echoes over the waters;
    the God of glory thunders,
    the Lord thunders over mighty waters.
The voice of the Lord is powerful;
    the voice of the Lord is filled with majesty.

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 29:2 Name: see note on Ps 5:12. In the splendor of his holiness: it probably refers to the priestly garments to be worn in the liturgy (see Ps 110:3), although it may also refer to God or to the sanctuary.
  2. Psalm 29:3 The voice of the Lord: this phrase appears seven times in imitation of the sound of thunder and symbolizes the power of God, the Lord of history as well as the Master of the elements, whose voice no one can resist (see Job 37:4f; Ezek 10:5).
