Psalme. xxix.
T.S.
An excellent Psalme, wherin the Prophet exhorteth the verye Princes and rulers of the world (whiche otherwise for the most parte thinke there is no God) at the leaste to feare hym for the thunders and tempestes, for feare wherat all creatures tremble. And though thereby God threatneth sinners, yet is he alwayes mercyfull to hys, and moueth them therby to prayse his name.
Giue
to the Lorde, ye potentates,
ye rulers of the worlde:
Geue ye all prayse, honor and strength,
vnto the liuing Lorde.
Geue honor to his holy name,
and honor him alone:
Worship hym in his maiestie,
within his holy throne.

and honor him alone:
Worship hym in his maiestie,

His voyce doth rule the waters all,
euen as him selfe doth please:
He doth prepare the thunder clappes,
and gouerneth all the sease.
The voyce of God, is of great force,
and wonderous excellent:
It is most mightye in effect,
and muche magnificent.

The voyce of God, doeth rent and break
the Cedre trees so long:
The Cedre tres of Libanus,
whiche are most hie and strong.
And makth them leape, like as a calf,
or els the Unicorne:
Not only trees, but mountaines great,
wheron the tres are borne.

His voice deuideth flames of fyre,
and shakth the wildernes:
It makth the desert quake for feare,
that called is Cades.
It makth the Hindes, for feare to calue
and makth the couerte playne:
Then in his temple euery man,
his glory doth proclaime.
