29 Psalmus cantici, in dedicatione domus David.

Exaltabo te, Domine, quoniam suscepisti me, nec delectasti inimicos meos super me.

Domine Deus meus, clamavi ad te, et sanasti me.

Domine, eduxisti ab inferno animam meam; salvasti me a descendentibus in lacum.

Psallite Domino, sancti ejus; et confitemini memoriae sanctitatis ejus.

Quoniam ira in indignatione ejus, et vita in voluntate ejus: ad vesperum demorabitur fletus, et ad matutinum laetitia.

Ego autem dixi in abundantia mea: Non movebor in aeternum.

Domine, in voluntate tua praestitisti decori meo virtutem; avertisti faciem tuam a me, et factus sum conturbatus.

Ad te, Domine, clamabo, et ad Deum meum deprecabor.

10 Quae utilitas in sanguine meo, dum descendo in corruptionem? numquid confitebitur tibi pulvis, aut annuntiabit veritatem tuam?

11 Audivit Dominus, et misertus est mei; Dominus factus est adjutor meus.

12 Convertisti planctum meum in gaudium mihi; conscidisti saccum meum, et circumdedisti me laetitia:

13 ut cantet tibi gloria mea, et non compungar. Domine Deus meus, in aeternum confitebor tibi.

Psalm 29

A psalm of David.

Ascribe to the Lord,(A) you heavenly beings,(B)
    ascribe to the Lord glory(C) and strength.
Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name;
    worship the Lord in the splendor of his[a] holiness.(D)

The voice(E) of the Lord is over the waters;
    the God of glory(F) thunders,(G)
    the Lord thunders over the mighty waters.(H)
The voice of the Lord is powerful;(I)
    the voice of the Lord is majestic.
The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;
    the Lord breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon.(J)
He makes Lebanon leap(K) like a calf,
    Sirion[b](L) like a young wild ox.(M)
The voice of the Lord strikes
    with flashes of lightning.(N)
The voice of the Lord shakes the desert;
    the Lord shakes the Desert of Kadesh.(O)
The voice of the Lord twists the oaks[c](P)
    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)
