Protect Me From the Wicked 1 O Lord, I keep calling to you. My Rock, do not be deaf to me. If you remain silent to me, I will become like those who go down to the pit. 2 Hear the sound of my plea for mercy when I cry out to you, when I lift up my hands toward your most holy sanctuary. 3 Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those evildoers. They speak peace to their neighbors but hide evil in their hearts. Punish the Wicked 4 Give to them what they have done to others. According to their evil actions, according to the deeds of their hands, punish them. Repay to them what they deserve. 5 Because they do not recognize the works of the Lord or the deeds of his hands, he will tear them down and not build them up. Then I Will Praise You 6 Blessed be the Lord, because he has heard the sound of my plea for mercy. 7 The Lord is my strength and my shield. In him my heart trusts, and I am helped. My heart also celebrates. With my song I will give thanks to him. 8 The Lord is their strength. He is a stronghold of salvation for his anointed king. 9 Save your people, and bless the people that belong to you. Shepherd them, and carry them forever. Psalm 29 The God of Glory Thunders Heading A psalm by David. The God of Glory Thunders 1 Ascribe to the Lord, you sons of God, [1] Ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. 2 Ascribe to the Lord the glory of his name. Bow down to the Lord in the splendor of holiness. 3 The voice of the Lord is heard over the waters. The God of glory thunders. The Lord thunders above the mighty waters. 4 The voice of the Lord thunders in power. The voice of the Lord thunders in majesty. 5 The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars. The Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon. 6 He makes Mount Lebanon skip like a calf. Sirion [2] skips like a young wild ox. 7 The voice of the Lord slashes with flashes of fire. 8 The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness. The Lord shakes the Wilderness of Kadesh. 9 The voice of the Lord destroys the oaks [3] and strips the forests bare. So in his temple they all say, “Glory!” 10 The Lord is seated over the flood. The Lord is seated as King forever. 11 The Lord gives strength to his people. The Lord blesses his people with peace. Footnotes Psalm 29:1 In this verse the Hebrew word translated God is elim rather than the usual elohim. Elim could also be translated mighty ones or heavenly beings. It seems to refer to the angels. Psalm 29:6 Sirion and Mount Lebanon are names for Mount Hermon. Psalm 29:9 Or makes the deer give birth. The Hebrew text provides vowels for the word as if it were the word for deer, rather than the word for oaks. Shattering oaks seems to fit the context and the parallelism better than makes the deer give birth. The Holy Bible, Evangelical Heritage Version®, EHV®, © 2019 Wartburg Project, Inc.
