Read Psalm 29

Praise the Lord, you heavenly beings;
   praise his glory and power.
2 Praise the Lord's glorious name;
   bow down before the Holy One when he appears.[b]

3 The voice of the Lord is heard on the seas;
   the glorious God thunders,
   and his voice echoes over the ocean.
4 The voice of the Lord is heard
   in all its might and majesty.

5 The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars,
   even the cedars of Lebanon.
6 He makes the mountains of Lebanon jump like calves
   and makes Mount Hermon leap like a young bull.

7 The voice of the Lord makes the lightning flash.
8 His voice makes the desert shake;
   he shakes the desert of Kadesh.
9 The Lord's voice shakes the oaks[c]
   and strips the leaves from the trees
   while everyone in his Temple shouts, “Glory to God!”

10 The Lord rules over the deep waters;
   he rules as king forever.
11 The Lord gives strength to his people
   and blesses them with peace.
