1 Salmo de Davi. Tributai ao Senhor, ó filhos de Deus, tributai ao Senhor glória e poder!

2 Rendei-lhe a glória devida ao seu nome; adorai o Senhor com ornamentos sagrados.

3 Ouve-se a voz do Senhor sobre as águas! O Deus de grandeza retumbou: o Senhor trovejou sobre as águas imensas!

4 A voz do Senhor faz-se ouvir com poder! A voz do Senhor faz-se ouvir com majestade!

5 Fendem-se os cedros à voz do Senhor, quebra o Senhor os cedros do Líbano.

6 Faz saltar o Líbano como um novilho, e o Sarion como um búfalo novo.

7 A voz do Senhor despede relâmpagos,

8 a voz do Senhor abala o deserto. O Senhor faz tremer o deserto de Cades.

9 A voz do Senhor retorce os carvalhos, desnuda as florestas. E em seu templo todos bradam: "glória"!.

10 O Senhor preside ao dilúvio, o Senhor domina como rei para sempre.

11 O Senhor há de dar fortaleza ao seu povo! O Senhor abençoará o seu povo, dando-lhe a paz!

A Psalm of David.

1 Unto thee will I cry, O LORD my rock; be not silent to me: lest, if thou be silent to me, I become like them that go down into the pit.*28.1 to me: Heb. from me

2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.*28.2 thy…: or, the oracle of thy sanctuary

3 Draw me not away with the wicked, and with the workers of iniquity, which speak peace to their neighbours, but mischief is in their hearts.

4 Give them according to their deeds, and according to the wickedness of their endeavours: give them after the work of their hands; render to them their desert.

5 Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of his hands, he shall destroy them, and not build them up.

6 Blessed be the LORD, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.

7 The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

8 The LORD is their strength, and he is the saving strength of his anointed.*28.8 their: or, his*28.8 saving…: Heb. strength of salvations

9 Save thy people, and bless thine inheritance: feed them also, and lift them up for ever.*28.9 feed: or, rule
