The voice of the Lord strikes
    with flashes of lightning.(N)
The voice of the Lord shakes the desert;

29 Give unto the Lord, O ye mighty, give unto the Lord glory and strength.

Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the Lord is upon many waters.

The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.

The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars; yea, the Lord breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.

He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.

The voice of the Lord divideth the flames of fire.

The voice of the Lord shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

The voice of the Lord maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.

Poder y gloria del Señor

Salmo de David.

29 ¡Rindan al Señor, seres celestiales;
rindan al Señor la gloria y el poder!
¡Ríndanle la gloria digna de su nombre!
¡Adoren al Señor en su santuario hermoso!(A)

La voz del Señor resuena sobre las aguas.
El Dios de la gloria hace oír su voz.
El Señor está sobre las muchas aguas.
La voz del Señor es potente.
La voz del Señor es majestuosa.
La voz del Señor desgaja los cedros;
¡el Señor desgaja los cedros del Líbano!
¡Su voz hace que los montes Líbano y Sirión
salten como becerros, como búfalos pequeños!
La voz del Señor lanza llamas de fuego.
La voz del Señor hace temblar al desierto;
el Señor hace temblar al desierto de Cades.
La voz del Señor desgaja las encinas
y deja los árboles sin hojas,
mientras en su templo todos proclaman su gloria.

10 El Señor es el rey eterno;
¡él ocupa su trono sobre las aguas!
11 El Señor infunde poder a su pueblo
y lo bendice con la paz.
