The voice of the Lord is over the waters;
(A)The God of glory thunders;
The Lord is over many waters.
The voice of the Lord is powerful;
The voice of the Lord is full of majesty.

The voice of the Lord breaks (B)the cedars,
Yes, the Lord splinters the cedars of Lebanon.
(C)He makes them also skip like a calf,
Lebanon and (D)Sirion like a young wild ox.
The voice of the Lord [a]divides the flames of fire.

The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;
The Lord shakes the Wilderness of (E)Kadesh.
The voice of the Lord makes the (F)deer give birth,
And strips the forests bare;
And in His temple everyone says, “Glory!”
