2. Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness.

4. The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.
5. The voice of the LORD breaks the cedars; the LORD breaks the cedars of Lebanon.
6. He makes Lebanon to skip like a calf, and Sirion like a young wild ox.
7. The voice of the LORD flashes forth flames of fire.
8. The voice of the LORD shakes the wilderness; the LORD shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
9. The voice of the LORD makes the deer give birth and strips the forests bare, and in his temple all cry, "Glory!"

11. May the LORD give strength to his people! May the LORD bless his people with peace!
