| # Chapter 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. Psalm 105
