Ascribe to the Lord Glory

A Psalm of David.

29 Ascribe to the Lord, O heavenly beings,^[a]
^(A)ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.
²Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
worship the Lord in ^(B)the splendor of holiness.^[b]

³The voice of the Lord is over ^(C)the waters;
    the God of glory ^(D)thunders,
    the Lord, over many waters.
⁴The voice of the Lord is ^(E)powerful;
    the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.

⁵The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;

and ^(H)Sirion like a young ^(I)wild ox.

⁷The voice of the Lord flashes forth flames of fire.
⁸The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;
the Lord shakes the wilderness of ^(J)Kadesh.

⁹The voice of the Lord makes ^(K)the deer give birth^[c]
and strips the forests bare,
and in his temple all cry, “Glory!”

¹⁰The Lord sits enthroned over ^(L)the flood;
the Lord sits enthroned ^(M)as king forever.
¹¹May the Lord give ^(N)strength to his people!
May the Lord bless^[d] his people with ^(O)peace!

Psalm 30

English Standard Version

Joy Comes with the Morning

A Psalm of David. A song at the dedication of ^(A)the temple.

30 I will ^(B)extol you, O Lord, for you have drawn me up
    and have not let my foes ^(C)rejoice over me.
²O Lord my God, I ^(D)cried to you for help,
    and you have ^(E)healed me.
³O Lord, you have brought up my soul from ^(F)Sheol;
    you restored me to life from among those who ^(G)go down to the pit.^[a]

⁴Sing praises to the Lord, O you ^(H)his saints,
    and ^(I)give thanks to his holy name.^[b]
⁵^(J)For his anger is but for a moment,
    and ^(K)his favor is for a lifetime.^[c]
^(L)Weeping may tarry for the night,
    but ^(M)joy comes with the morning.

⁶As for me, I said in my ^(N)prosperity,
    “I shall never be ^(O)moved.”
⁷By your favor, O Lord,
    you made my ^(P)mountain stand strong;
you ^(Q)hid your face;
    I was ^(R)dismayed.

⁸To you, O Lord, I cry,
    and ^(S)to the Lord I plead for mercy:
⁹“What profit is there in my death,^[d]
    if I go down to the pit?^[e]
Will ^(T)the dust praise you?
    Will it tell of your faithfulness?
¹⁰^(U)Hear, O Lord, and be merciful to me!
    O Lord, be my helper!”

¹¹You have turned for me my mourning into ^(V)dancing;
    you have loosed my sackcloth
    and clothed me with gladness,
¹²that my ^(W)glory may sing your praise and not be silent.
    O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
