Psalm 29

Praise to God in His Holiness and Majesty

A Psalm of David.

29 Give[a] (A)unto the Lord, O you mighty ones,
Give unto the Lord glory and strength.
[b]Give unto the Lord the glory [c]due to His name;
Worship the Lord in (B)the [d]beauty of holiness.

The voice of the Lord is over the waters;
(C)The God of glory thunders;
The Lord is over many waters.
The voice of the Lord is powerful;
The voice of the Lord is full of majesty.

The voice of the Lord breaks (D)the cedars,
Yes, the Lord splinters the cedars of Lebanon.
(E)He makes them also skip like a calf,
Lebanon and (F)Sirion like a young wild ox.
The voice of the Lord [e]divides the flames of fire.

The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;
The Lord shakes the Wilderness of (G)Kadesh.
The voice of the Lord makes the (H)deer give birth,
And strips the forests bare;
And in His temple everyone says, “Glory!”

10 The (I)Lord sat enthroned at the Flood,
And (J)the Lord sits as King forever.
11 (K)The Lord will give strength to His people;
The Lord will bless His people with peace.

Job 39:26-40:5

26 “Does the hawk fly by your wisdom,
And spread its wings toward the south?
27 Does the (A)eagle mount up at your command,
And (B)make its nest on high?
28 On the rock it dwells and resides,
On the crag of the rock and the stronghold.
29 From there it spies out the prey;
Its eyes observe from afar.
30 Its young ones suck up blood;
And (C)where the slain are, there it is.

God’s Power and Wisdom

40 Moreover the Lord (D)answered Job, and said:

“Shall (E)the one who contends with the Almighty correct Him?
He who (F)rebukes God, let him answer it.”

Job’s Response to God

Then Job answered the Lord and said:

“Behold,(G) I am vile;
What shall I answer You?
(H)I lay my hand over my mouth.
Once I have spoken, but I will not answer;
Yes, twice, but I will proceed no further.”

John 14:25-26

The Gift of His Peace

25 “These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. 26 But (A)the [a]Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will (B)send in My name, (C)He will teach you all things, and bring to your (D)remembrance all things that I said to you.
