1A psalm for David, at the finishing of the tabernacle. Bring to the Lord, O ye children of God: bring to the Lord the offspring of rams.

1 Unto thee, Jehovah, do I call; my rock, be not silent unto me, lest, [if] thou keep silence toward me, I become like them that go down into the pit.

2Bring to the Lord glory and honour: bring to the Lord glory to his name: adore ye the Lord in his holy court.

2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward the oracle of thy holiness.

3The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of majesty hath thundered, The Lord is upon many waters.

3 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, who speak peace to their neighbours, and mischief is in their heart.

4The voice of the Lord is in power; the voice of the Lord in magnificence.

4 Give them according to their doing, and according to the wickedness of their deeds; give them after the work of their hands, render to them their desert.

5The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars: yea, the Lord shall break the cedars of Libanus.

5 For they regard not the deeds of Jehovah, nor the work of his hands: he will destroy them, and not build them up.

6And shall reduce them to pieces, as a calf of Libanus, and as the beloved son of unicorns.

6 Blessed be Jehovah, for he hath heard the voice of my supplications.

7The voice of the Lord divideth the flame of fire:

7 Jehovah is my strength and my shield; my heart confided in him, and I was helped: therefore my heart exulteth, and with my song will I praise him.

8The voice of the Lord shaketh the desert: and the Lord shall shake the desert of Cades.

8 Jehovah is their strength; and he is the stronghold of salvation to his anointed one.

9The voice of the Lord prepareth the stags: and he will discover the thick woods: and in his temple all shall speak his glory.

9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance; and feed them, and lift them up for ever.

10The Lord maketh the flood to dwell: and the Lord shall sit king for ever.
