Honor* the Lord, children of God,* honor his glory and strength.
2
Honor the Lord for his glorious character, bow in reverence to the Lord in his brilliant holiness.
3
The Lord's voice sounds over the sea. The God of glory thunders. The Lord thunders over the vast ocean.
4
The Lord's voice is powerful; the Lord's voice is majestic;
5
the Lord's voice shatters the cedars, even breaking the cedars of Lebanon.
6
He makes the mountains of Lebanon skip like a calf, and Mount Hermon like a young wild ox.
7
The Lord's voice blazes out like lightning flashes.
8
The Lord's voice causes an earthquake in the desert; the desert of Kadesh shakes.
9
The Lord's voice makes the pregnant deer go into labor; it strips bare the forests. In his Temple all the worshipers shout, “Glory!”
10
The Lord sits on his throne above the floodwaters; the Lord is the eternal King.
11
The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses them with peace.
