1 Ascribe unto Jehovah, O ye sons of the mighty, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength.

1A psalm of a canticle, at the dedication of David's house.

2Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name; Worship Jehovah in holy array.

2I will extol thee, O Lord, for thou hast upheld me: and hast not made my enemies to rejoice over me.

3 The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters: The God of glory thundereth, Even Jehovah upon many waters.

3O Lord my God, I have cried to thee, and thou hast healed me.

4The voice of Jehovah is powerful; The voice of Jehovah is full of majesty.

4Thou hast brought forth, O Lord, my soul from hell: thou hast saved me from them that go down into the pit.

5The voice of Jehovah breaketh the cedars; Yea, Jehovah breaketh in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.

5Sing to the Lord, O ye his saints: and give praise to the memory of his holiness.

6He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young wild-ox.

6For wrath is in his indignation; and life in his good will. In the evening weeping shall have place, and in the morning gladness.

7The voice of Jehovah cleaveth the flames of fire.

7And in my abundance I said: I shall never be moved.

8The voice of Jehovah shaketh the wilderness; Jehovah shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

8O Lord, in thy favour, thou gavest strength to my beauty. Thou turnedst away thy face from me, and I became troubled.

9The voice of Jehovah maketh the hinds to calve, And strippeth the forests bare: And in his temple everything saith, Glory.

9To thee, O Lord, will I cry: and I will make supplication to my God.

10 Jehovah satas Kingat the Flood; Yea, Jehovah sitteth as King for ever.

10What profit is there in my blood, whilst I go down to corruption? Shall dust confess to thee, or declare thy truth?

11Jehovah will give strength unto his people; Jehovah will bless his people with peace.

11The Lord hath heard, and hath had mercy on me: the Lord became my helper.

12(not in this translation)

12Thou hast turned for me my mourning into joy: thou hast cut my sackcloth, and hast compassed me with gladness:

13(not in this translation)

13To the end that my glory may sing to thee, and I may not regret: O Lord my God, I will give praise to thee for ever.
