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