1 Ascribe unto Jehovah, O ye sons of the mighty, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength.
1 Give to the Lord, you sons of the gods, give to the Lord glory and strength.
2Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name; Worship Jehovah in holy array.
2Give to the Lord the full glory of his name; give him worship in holy robes.
3 The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters: The God of glory thundereth, Even Jehovah upon many waters.
3The voice of the Lord is on the waters: the God of glory is thundering, the Lord is on the great waters.
4The voice of Jehovah is powerful; The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.
4The voice of the Lord is full of power; the voice of the Lord has a noble sound.
5The voice of Jehovah breaketh the cedars; Yea, Jehovah breaketh in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.
5By the voice of the Lord are the cedar-trees broken, even the cedars of Lebanon are broken by the Lord.
6He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild-ox.
6He makes them go jumping about like a young ox; Lebanon and Sirion like a young mountain ox.
7The voice of Jehovah cleaveth the flames of fire.
7At the voice of the Lord flames of fire are seen.
8The voice of Jehovah shaketh the wilderness; Jehovah shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.
8At the voice of the Lord there is a shaking in the waste land, even a shaking in the waste land of Kadesh.
9The voice of Jehovah maketh the hinds to calve, And strippeth the forests bare: And in his temple everything saith, Glory.
9At the voice of the Lord the roes give birth, the leaves are taken from the trees: in his Temple everything says, Glory.
