ascribe to the Lord glory(C) and strength.

worship the Lord in the splendor of his[a] holiness.(D)

the God of glory(F) thunders,(G)
the Lord thunders over the mighty waters.(H)

the voice of the Lord is majestic.

Sirion[b](L) like a young wild ox.(M)

with flashes of lightning.(N)
8 The voice of the Lord shakes the desert;
the Lord shakes the Desert of Kadesh.(O)

and strips the forests bare.
And in his temple all cry, “Glory!”(Q)
10 The Lord sits enthroned over the flood;(R)
the Lord is enthroned as King forever.(S)
11 The Lord gives strength to his people;(T)
the Lord blesses his people with peace.(U)
