104:1  – Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, You are very great:
You are clothed with honor and majesty,

104:2  Who cover Yourself with light as with a garment,
Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain.

104:3  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,

104:4  Who makes His angels spirits,
His ministers a flame of fire.

104:5  You who laid the foundations of the earth,
So that it should not be moved forever,

104:6  You covered it with the deep as with a garment;
The waters stood above the mountains.

104:7  At Your rebuke they fled;
At the voice of Your thunder they hastened away.

104:8  They went up over the mountains;
They went down into the valleys,
To the place which You founded for them.

104:9  You have set a boundary that they may not pass over,
That they may not return to cover the earth.

104:10  He sends the springs into the valleys;
They flow among the hills.

104:11  They give drink to every beast of the field;
The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

104:12  By them the birds of the heavens have their home;
They sing among the branches.

104:13  He waters the hills from His upper chambers;
The earth is satisfied with the fruit of Your works.

104:14  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,

104:15  And wine that makes glad the heart of man,
Oil to make his face shine,
And bread which strengthens man’s heart.

104:16  The trees of the LORD are full of sap,
The cedars of Lebanon which He planted,

104:17  Where the birds make their nests;
The stork has her home in the fir trees.

104:18  The high hills are for the wild goats;
The cliffs are a refuge for the rock badgers.

104:19  He appointed the moon for seasons;
The sun knows its going down.

104:20  You make darkness, and it is night,
In which all the beasts of the forest creep about.

104:21  The young lions roar after their prey,
And seek their food from God.

104:22  When the sun rises, they gather together
And lie down in their dens.

104:23  Man goes out to his work
And to his labor until the evening.

104:24  O LORD, how manifold are Your works!
In wisdom You have made them all.
The earth is full of Your possessions—

104:25  This great and wide sea,
In which are innumerable teeming things,
Living things both small and great.

104:26  There the ships sail about;
There is that Leviathan
Which You have made to play there.

104:27  These all wait for You,
That You may give them their food in due season.

104:28  What You give them they gather in;
You open Your hand, they are filled with good.

104:29  You hide Your face, they are troubled;
You take away their breath, they die and return to their dust.

104:30  You send forth Your Spirit, they are created;
And You renew the face of the earth.

104:31  May the glory of the LORD endure forever;
May the LORD rejoice in His works.

104:32  He looks on the earth, and it trembles;
He touches the hills, and they smoke.

104:33  I will sing to the LORD as long as I live;
I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.

104:34  May my meditation be sweet to Him;
I will be glad in the LORD.

104:35  May sinners be consumed from the earth,
And the wicked be no more. Bless the LORD, O my soul!
Praise the LORD!
