# Psalm 104 
<a id="1" name="1"></a>
1. Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, you are very great! You are clothed with splendor and majesty, 
<a id="2" name="2"></a>
2. covering yourself with light as with a garment, stretching out the heavens like a tent. 
<a id="3" name="3"></a>
3. He lays the beams of his chambers on the waters; he makes the clouds his chariot; he rides on the wings of the wind; 
<a id="4" name="4"></a>
4. he makes his messengers winds, his ministers a flaming fire. 
<a id="5" name="5"></a>
5. He set the earth on its foundations, so that it should never be moved. 
<a id="6" name="6"></a>
6. You covered it with the deep as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains. 
<a id="7" name="7"></a>
7. At your rebuke they fled; at the sound of your thunder they took to flight. 
<a id="8" name="8"></a>
8. The mountains rose, the valleys sank down to the place that you appointed for them. 
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
9. You set a boundary that they may not pass, so that they might not again cover the earth. 
<a id="10" name="10"></a>
10. You make springs gush forth in the valleys; they flow between the hills; 
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
11. they give drink to every beast of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst. 
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
12. Beside them the birds of the heavens dwell; they sing among the branches. 
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
13. From your lofty abode you water the mountains; the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work. 
<a id="14" name="14"></a>
14. You cause the grass to grow for the livestock and plants for man to cultivate, that he may bring forth food from the earth 
<a id="15" name="15"></a>
15. and wine to gladden the heart of man, oil to make his face shine and bread to strengthen man’s heart. 
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
16. The trees of the LORD are watered abundantly, the cedars of Lebanon that he planted. 
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
17. In them the birds build their nests; the stork has her home in the fir trees. 
<a id="18" name="18"></a>
18. The high mountains are for the wild goats; the rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers. 
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
19. He made the moon to mark the seasons; the sun knows its time for setting. 
<a id="20" name="20"></a>
20. You make darkness, and it is night, when all the beasts of the forest creep about. 
<a id="21" name="21"></a>
21. The young lions roar for their prey, seeking their food from God. 
<a id="22" name="22"></a>
22. When the sun rises, they steal away and lie down in their dens. 
<a id="23" name="23"></a>
23. Man goes out to his work and to his labor until the evening. 
<a id="24" name="24"></a>
24. O LORD, how manifold are your works! In wisdom have you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. 
<a id="25" name="25"></a>
25. Here is the sea, great and wide, which teems with creatures innumerable, living things both small and great. 
<a id="26" name="26"></a>
26. There go the ships, and Leviathan, which you formed to play in it. 
<a id="27" name="27"></a>
27. These all look to you, to give them their food in due season. 
<a id="28" name="28"></a>
28. When you give it to them, they gather it up; when you open your hand, they are filled with good things. 
<a id="29" name="29"></a>
29. When you hide your face, they are dismayed; when you take away their breath, they die and return to their dust. 
<a id="30" name="30"></a>
30. When you send forth your Spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the ground. 
<a id="31" name="31"></a>
31. May the glory of the LORD endure forever; may the LORD rejoice in his works, 
<a id="32" name="32"></a>
32. who looks on the earth and it trembles, who touches the mountains and they smoke! 
<a id="33" name="33"></a>
33. I will sing to the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have being. 
<a id="34" name="34"></a>
34. May my meditation be pleasing to him, for I rejoice in the LORD. 
<a id="35" name="35"></a>
35. Let sinners be consumed from the earth, and let the wicked be no more! Bless the LORD, O my soul! Praise the LORD!
