# Chapter 104
|
|
1. Bless the Lord, O my soul!
|
|
O Lord my God, You are very great:
|
|
You are clothed with honor and majesty,
|
|
|
|
2. Who cover Yourself with light as with a garment,
|
|
Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain.
|
|
|
|
3. 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,
|
|
|
|
4. Who makes His angels spirits,
|
|
His ministers a flame of fire.
|
|
|
|
5. You who laid the foundations of the earth,
|
|
So that it should not be moved forever,
|
|
|
|
6. You covered it with the deep as with a garment;
|
|
The waters stood above the mountains.
|
|
|
|
7. At Your rebuke they fled;
|
|
At the voice of Your thunder they hastened away.
|
|
|
|
8. They went up over the mountains;
|
|
They went down into the valleys,
|
|
To the place which You founded for them.
|
|
|
|
9. You have set a boundary that they may not pass over,
|
|
That they may not return to cover the earth.
|
|
|
|
10. He sends the springs into the valleys;
|
|
They flow among the hills.
|
|
|
|
11. They give drink to every beast of the field;
|
|
The wild donkeys quench their thirst.
|
|
|
|
12. By them the birds of the heavens have their home;
|
|
They sing among the branches.
|
|
|
|
13. He waters the hills from His upper chambers;
|
|
The earth is satisfied with the fruit of Your works.
|
|
|
|
14. 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,
|
|
|
|
15. And wine that makes glad the heart of man,
|
|
Oil to make his face shine,
|
|
And bread which strengthens man's heart.
|
|
|
|
16. The trees of the Lord are full of sap,
|
|
The cedars of Lebanon which He planted,
|
|
|
|
17. Where the birds make their nests;
|
|
The stork has her home in the fir trees.
|
|
|
|
18. The high hills are for the wild goats;
|
|
The cliffs are a refuge for the rock badgers.
|
|
|
|
19. He appointed the moon for seasons;
|
|
The sun knows its going down.
|
|
|
|
20. You make darkness, and it is night,
|
|
In which all the beasts of the forest creep about.
|
|
|
|
21. The young lions roar after their prey,
|
|
And seek their food from God.
|
|
|
|
22. When the sun rises, they gather together
|
|
And lie down in their dens.
|
|
|
|
23. Man goes out to his work
|
|
And to his labor until the evening.
|
|
|
|
24. O Lord, how manifold are Your works!
|
|
In wisdom You have made them all.
|
|
The earth is full of Your possessions--
|
|
|
|
25. This great and wide sea,
|
|
In which are innumerable teeming things,
|
|
Living things both small and great.
|
|
|
|
26. There the ships sail about;
|
|
There is that Leviathan
|
|
Which You have made to play there.
|
|
|
|
27. These all wait for You,
|
|
That You may give them their food in due season.
|
|
|
|
28. What You give them they gather in;
|
|
You open Your hand, they are filled with good.
|
|
|
|
29. You hide Your face, they are troubled;
|
|
You take away their breath, they die and return to their dust.
|
|
|
|
30. You send forth Your Spirit, they are created;
|
|
And You renew the face of the earth.
|
|
|
|
31. May the glory of the Lord endure forever;
|
|
May the Lord rejoice in His works.
|
|
|
|
32. He looks on the earth, and it trembles;
|
|
He touches the hills, and they smoke.
|
|
|
|
33. I will sing to the Lord as long as I live;
|
|
I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
|
|
|
|
34. May my meditation be sweet to Him;
|
|
I will be glad in the Lord.
|
|
|
|
35. May sinners be consumed from the earth,
|
|
And the wicked be no more.
|
|
Bless the Lord, O my soul!
|
|
Praise the Lord!
