Acknowledge God’s power, his sovereignty over Israel, and the power he reveals in the skies!

Many are appalled when they see me, but you are my secure shelter.

He brought the east wind through the sky, and by his strength led forth the south wind.

He allowed the symbol of his strong presence to be captured; he gave the symbol of his splendor into the hand of the enemy.

Who can really fathom the intensity of your anger? Your raging fury causes people to fear you.

Majestic splendor emanates from him; his sanctuary is firmly established and beautiful.

Seek the Lord and the strength he gives! Seek his presence continually!

The Lord gives me strength and protects me; he has become my deliverer.”

Ascend, O Lord, to your resting place, you and the ark of your strength!

When I cried out for help, you answered me. You made me bold and energized me.

Rise up, O Lord, in strength! We will sing and praise your power!

The Lord strengthens his people; he protects and delivers his chosen king.

You are my source of strength! I will wait for you! For God is my refuge.

Yes, in the sanctuary I have seen you, and witnessed your power and splendor.

You are the God who does amazing things; you have revealed your strength among the nations.

How blessed are those who find their strength in you, and long to travel the roads that lead to your temple!

Ascribe to the Lord, O families of the nations, ascribe to the Lord splendor and strength!

The Lord extends your dominion from Zion. Rule in the midst of your enemies!

Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary! Praise him in the sky, which testifies to his strength!

From the mouths of children and nursing babies you have ordained praise on account of your adversaries, so that you might put an end to the vindictive enemy.
