Psalms Chapter 104
|
|||
|
1 Bless Yahweh, my soul. Yahweh, my God, you are very great. You are clothed with honor and majesty.
|
|||
|
2 He covers himself with light as with a garment. He stretches out the heavens like a curtain.
|
|||
|
3 He lays the beams of his rooms in the waters. He makes the clouds his chariot. He walks on the wings of the wind.
|
|||
|
4 He makes his messengers winds, and his servants flames of fire.
|
|||
|
5 He laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be moved forever.
|
|||
|
6 You covered it with the deep as with a cloak. The waters stood above the mountains.
|
|||
|
7 At your rebuke they fled. At the voice of your thunder they hurried away.
|
|||
|
8 The mountains rose, the valleys sank down, to the place which you had assigned to them.
|
|||
|
9 You have set a boundary that they may not pass over, that they don’t turn again to cover the earth.
|
|||
|
10 He sends springs into the valleys. They run among the mountains.
|
|||
|
11 They give drink to every animal of the field. The wild donkeys quench their thirst.
|
|||
|
12 The birds of the sky nest by them. They sing among the branches.
|
|||
|
13 He waters the mountains from his rooms. The earth is filled with the fruit of your works.
|
|||
|
14 He causes the grass to grow for the livestock, and plants for man to cultivate, that he may produce food out of the earth:
|
|||
|
15 wine that makes the heart of man glad, oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man’s heart.
|
|||
|
16 Yahweh’s trees are well watered, the cedars of Lebanon, which he has planted,
|
|||
|
17 where the birds make their nests. The stork makes its home in the cypress trees.
|
|||
|
18 The high mountains are for the wild goats. The rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.
|
|||
|
19 He appointed the moon for seasons. The sun knows when to set.
|
|||
|
20 You make darkness, and it is night, in which all the animals of the forest prowl.
|
|||
|
21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God.
|
|||
|
22 The sun rises, and they steal away, and lie down in their dens.
|
|||
|
23 Man goes out to his work, to his labor until the evening.
|
|||
|
24 Yahweh, how many are your works! In wisdom, you have made them all. The earth is full of your riches.
|
|||
|
25 There is the sea, great and wide, in which are innumerable living things, both small and large animals.
|
|||
|
26 There the ships go, and leviathan, whom you formed to play there.
|
|||
|
27 These all wait for you, that you may give them their food in due 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 take away their breath; they die and return to the dust.
|
|||
|
30 You send out your Spirit and they are created. You renew the face of the ground.
|
|||
|
31 Let Yahweh’s glory endure forever. Let Yahweh rejoice in his works.
|
|||
|
32 He looks at the earth, and it trembles. He touches the mountains, and they smoke.
|
|||
|
33 I will sing to Yahweh as long as I live. I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.
|
|||
|
34 Let my meditation be sweet to him. I will rejoice in Yahweh.
|
|||
|
35 Let sinners be consumed out of the earth. Let the wicked be no more. Bless Yahweh, my soul. Praise Yah!
