Commentary on Psalms - Volume 5

1Ascribe to Jehovah: ye sons of the mighty — Ascribe to Jehovah glory and strength.

2Ascribe to Jehovah the glory of his name; Worship before Jehovah in the brightness of his sanctuary.

3The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters; The God of glory thundereth; Jehovah is upon the waters great.

4The voice of Jehovah is in strength, The voice of Jehovah is in majesty.

5The voice of Jehovah breaketh the cedars; Break, I say, doth Jehovah the cedars of Lebanon.

6And he maketh Lebanon to leap like a calf, And Sirion like the son of the unicorns.

7The voice of Jehovah striketh out flames of fire.

8The voice of Jehovah maketh the desert to tremble. Jehovah maketh to tremble the desert of Kadesh.

9The voice of Jehovah maketh the hinds to bring forth, And discovereth the forests, And all meanwhile in his temple speak his praise.

10Jehovah over the flood presideth, Preside, I say, doth Jehovah [as] King for ever.

11Jehovah strength to his people will give; Jehovah will bless his people with peace.
