Psalm 104:1-35 LSV
[1] Bless, O my soul, YHWH! YHWH, my God, || You have been very great, || You have put on splendor and majesty. [2] Covering Himself [with] light as a garment, || Stretching out the heavens as a curtain, [3] Who is laying the beam of His upper chambers in the waters, || Who is making thick clouds His chariot, || Who is walking on wings of wind, [4] Making His messengers—the winds, || His ministers—the flaming fire. [5] He has founded earth on its bases, || It is not moved for all time and forever. [6] The abyss! You have covered it as with clothing, || Waters stand above hills. [7] They flee from Your rebuke, || They hurry away from the voice of Your thunder. [8] They go up hills—they go down valleys, || To a place You have founded for them. [9] You have set a border, they do not pass over, || They do not turn back to cover the earth. [10] He is sending forth fountains in valleys, || They go on between hills. [11] They water every beast of the field, || Wild donkeys break their thirst. [12] The bird of the heavens dwells by them, || From between the branches || They give forth the voice. [13] Watering hills from His upper chambers, || The earth is satisfied from the fruit of Your works. [14] Causing grass to spring up for livestock, || And herb for the service of man, || To bring forth bread from the earth, [15] And wine—it makes the heart of man glad, || To cause the face to shine from oil, || And bread—it supports the heart of man. [16] The trees of YHWH [are] satisfied, || Cedars of Lebanon that He has planted, [17] Where birds make nests, || The stork—the firs [are] her house. [18] The high hills [are] for wild goats, rocks [are] a refuge for hyraxes, [19] He made the moon for seasons, || The sun has known his place of entrance. [20] You set darkness, and it is night, || Every beast of the forest creeps in it. [21] The young lions are roaring for prey, || And to seek their food from God. [22] The sun rises, they are gathered, || And they crouch in their dens. [23] Man goes forth to his work, || And to his service—until evening. [24] How many have been Your works, O YHWH, || You have made all of them in wisdom, || The earth is full of your possessions. [25] This, the sea, great and broad of sides, || There [are] moving things—innumerable, || Living creatures—small with great. [26] There ships go—[and] leviathan, || That You have formed to play in it. [27] All of them look to You, || To give their food in its season. [28] You give to them—they gather, || You open Your hand—they [are] satisfied [with] good. [29] You hide Your face—they are troubled, || You gather their spirit—they expire, || And they return to their dust. [30] You send out Your Spirit, they are created, || And You renew the face of the ground. [31] The glory of YHWH is for all time, || YHWH rejoices in His works, [32] Who is looking to earth, and it trembles, || He comes against hills, and they smoke. [33] I sing to YHWH during my life, || I sing praise to my God while I exist. [34] My meditation on Him is sweet, || I rejoice in YHWH. [35] Sinners are consumed from the earth, || And the wicked are no more. Bless, O my soul, YHWH. Praise YAH!
