3 The voice of the Lord is over the waters;
^aThe God of glory thunders;
The Lord is over many waters. ‡

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

5 The voice of the Lord breaks ^athe cedars,
Yes, the Lord splinters the cedars of Lebanon. ‡

6 ^aHe makes them also skip like a calf,
Lebanon and ^bSirion like a young wild ox. ‡

7 The voice of the Lord¹ divides the flames of fire. ‡

8 The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;
The Lord shakes the Wilderness of ^aKadesh. ‡

9 The voice of the Lord makes the ^adeer give birth,
And strips the forests bare;
And in His temple everyone says, “Glory!” ‡

10 The ^aLord sat enthroned at the Flood,
And ^bthe Lord sits as King forever. ‡

11 ^aThe Lord will give strength to His people;
The Lord will bless His people with peace. ‡
