Chapter 104
-
Bless the Lord, O my soul! O Lord my God, You are very great: You are clothed with honor and majesty,
-
Who cover Yourself with light as with a garment, Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain.
-
He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters, Who makes the clouds His chariot, Who walks on the wings of the wind,
-
Who makes His angels spirits, His ministers a flame of fire.
-
You who laid the foundations of the earth, So that it should not be moved forever,
-
You covered it with the deep as with a garment; The waters stood above the mountains.
-
At Your rebuke they fled; At the voice of Your thunder they hastened away.
-
They went up over the mountains; They went down into the valleys, To the place which You founded for them.
-
You have set a boundary that they may not pass over, That they may not return to cover the earth.
-
He sends the springs into the valleys; They flow among the hills.
-
They give drink to every beast of the field; The wild donkeys quench their thirst.
-
By them the birds of the heavens have their home; They sing among the branches.
-
He waters the hills from His upper chambers; The earth is satisfied with the fruit of Your works.
-
He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, And vegetation for the service of man, That he may bring forth food from the earth,
-
And wine that makes glad the heart of man, Oil to make his face shine, And bread which strengthens man's heart.
-
The trees of the Lord are full of sap, The cedars of Lebanon which He planted,
-
Where the birds make their nests; The stork has her home in the fir trees.
-
The high hills are for the wild goats; The cliffs are a refuge for the rock badgers.
-
He appointed the moon for seasons; The sun knows its going down.
-
You make darkness, and it is night, In which all the beasts of the forest creep about.
-
The young lions roar after their prey, And seek their food from God.
-
When the sun rises, they gather together And lie down in their dens.
-
Man goes out to his work And to his labor until the evening.
-
O Lord, how manifold are Your works! In wisdom You have made them all. The earth is full of Your possessions--
-
This great and wide sea, In which are innumerable teeming things, Living things both small and great.
-
There the ships sail about; There is that Leviathan Which You have made to play there.
-
These all wait for You, That You may give them their food in due season.
-
What You give them they gather in; You open Your hand, they are filled with good.
-
You hide Your face, they are troubled; You take away their breath, they die and return to their dust.
-
You send forth Your Spirit, they are created; And You renew the face of the earth.
-
May the glory of the Lord endure forever; May the Lord rejoice in His works.
-
He looks on the earth, and it trembles; He touches the hills, and they smoke.
-
I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
-
May my meditation be sweet to Him; I will be glad in the Lord.
-
May sinners be consumed from the earth, And the wicked be no more. Bless the Lord, O my soul! Praise the Lord!
