Psalm 29 extols the power of God, namely His voice. The mere utterance of His voice causes mountains to tremble, cattle to give birth and waters to quake. His power is evidently displayed in nature and in His power over His creation.
Psalm 30 was sung at the dedication of the temple. This would have been a psalm penned by David but not put to music and sung until after his death. The song praises God for His mercy and help in times of trouble. God's presence causes a dramatic change of attitude and events: mourning turns to dancing with joy; sadness turns to extreme gladness. Truly God's presence is life-changing!
