5 The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars;
the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon. ^g
6 He makes Lebanon skip like a calf ^h
and Sirion ^{▼▼= Mount Hermon} like a young wild ox. ^j
7 The voice of the Lord flashes flames of fire. ^k
8 The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;
the Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh. ^l
9 The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth ^{▼▼Or the oaks shake
,} ⁿ
and strips the woodlands bare. ^o

In His temple all cry, “Glory!”

10 The Lord sat enthroned at the flood;
the Lord sits enthroned, King forever. ^p
11 The Lord gives His people strength; ^q
the Lord blesses His people with peace. ^r
