📖 Psalms 104
-
1
Bless Jehovah, O my soul. O Jehovah my God, thou art very great; Thou art clothed with honor and majesty:
-
2
Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment; Who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain;
-
3
Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters; Who maketh the clouds his chariot; Who walketh upon the wings of the wind;
-
4
Who maketh winds his messengers; Flames of fire his ministers;
-
5
Who laid the foundations of the earth, That it should not be moved for ever.
-
6
Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a vesture; The waters stood above the mountains.
-
7
At thy rebuke they fled; At the voice of thy thunder they hasted away
-
8
(The mountains rose, the valleys sank down) Unto the place which thou hadst founded for them.
-
9
Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; That they turn not again to cover the earth.
-
10
He sendeth forth springs into the valleys; They run among the mountains;
-
11
They give drink to every beast of the field; The wild asses quench their thirst.
-
12
By them the birds of the heavens have their habitation; They sing among the branches.
-
13
He watereth the mountains from his chambers: The earth is filled with the fruit of thy works.
-
14
He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, And herb for the service of man; That he may bring forth food out of the earth,
-
15
And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, [And] oil to make his face to shine, And bread that strengtheneth man's heart.
-
16
The trees of Jehovah are filled [with moisture], The cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
-
17
Where the birds make their nests: As for the stork, the fir-trees are her house.
-
18
The high mountains are for the wild goats; The rocks are a refuge for the conies.
-
19
He appointed the moon for seasons: The sun knoweth his going down.
-
20
Thou makest darkness, and it is night, Wherein all the beasts of the forest creep forth.
-
21
The young lions roar after their prey, And seek their food from God.
-
22
The sun ariseth, they get them away, And lay them down in their dens.
-
23
Man goeth forth unto his work And to his labor until the evening.
-
24
O Jehovah, how manifold are thy works! In wisdom hast thou made them all: The earth is full of thy riches.
-
25
Yonder is the sea, great and wide, Wherein are things creeping innumerable, Both small and great beasts.
-
26
There go the ships; There is leviathan, whom thou hast formed to play therein.
-
27
These wait all for thee, That thou mayest give them their food in due season.
-
28
Thou givest unto them, they gather; Thou openest thy hand, they are satisfied with good.
-
29
Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled; Thou takest away their breath, they die, And return to their dust.
-
30
Thou sendest forth thy Spirit, they are created; And thou renewest the face of the ground.
-
31
Let the glory of Jehovah endure for ever; Let Jehovah rejoice in his works:
-
32
Who looketh on the earth, and it trembleth; He toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.
-
33
I will sing unto Jehovah as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.
-
34
Let thy meditation be sweet unto him: I will rejoice in Jehovah.
-
35
Let sinners be consumed out of the earth. And let the wicked be no more. Bless Jehovah, O my soul. Praise ye Jehovah.
