| # Chapter 104
| Bless, O my soul, Jehovah! Jehovah, my God, Thou hast been very great, Honour and majesty Thou hast put on.
| Covering himself [with] light as a garment, Stretching out the heavens as a curtain,
| Who 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,
| Making His messengers -- the winds, His ministers -- the flaming fire.
| He hath founded earth on its bases, It is not moved to the age and for ever.
| The abyss! as with clothing Thou hast covered it, Above hills do waters stand.
| From Thy rebuke they flee, From the voice of Thy thunder haste away.
| They go up hills -- they go down valleys, Unto a place Thou hast founded for them.
| A border Thou hast set, they pass not over, They turn not back to cover the earth.
| Who is sending forth fountains in valleys, Between hills they go on.
| They water every beast of the field, Wild asses break their thirst.
| By them the fowl of the heavens doth dwell, From between the branches They give forth the voice.
| Watering hills from His upper chambers, From the fruit of Thy works is the earth satisfied.
| Causing grass to spring up for cattle, And herb for the service of man, To bring forth bread from the earth,
| And wine -- it rejoiceth the heart of man, To cause the face to shine from oil, And bread -- the heart of man it supporteth.
| Satisfied [are] the trees of Jehovah, Cedars of Lebanon that He hath planted,
| Where birds do make nests, The stork -- the firs [are] her house.
| The high hills [are] for wild goats, Rocks [are] a refuge for conies,
| He made the moon for seasons, The sun hath known his place of entrance.
| Thou settest darkness, and it is night, In it doth every beast of the forest creep.
| The young lions are roaring for prey, And to seek from God their food.
| The sun riseth, they are gathered, And in their dens they crouch.
| Man goeth forth to his work, And to his service -- till evening.
| How many have been Thy works, O Jehovah, All of them in wisdom Thou hast made, Full is the earth of thy possessions.
| This, the sea, great and broad of sides, There [are] moving things -- innumerable, Living creatures -- small with great.
| There do ships go: leviathan, That Thou hast formed to play in it.
| All of them unto Thee do look, To give their food in its season.
| Thou dost give to them -- they gather, Thou dost open Thy hand -- they [are] satisfied [with] good.
| Thou hidest Thy face -- they are troubled, Thou gatherest their spirit -- they expire, And unto their dust they turn back.
| Thou sendest out Thy Spirit, they are created, And Thou renewest the face of the ground.
| The honour of Jehovah is to the age, Jehovah rejoiceth in His works,
| Who is looking to earth, and it trembleth, He cometh against hills, and they smoke.
| I sing to Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.
| Sweet is my meditation on Him, I -- I do rejoice in Jehovah.
| Consumed are sinners from the earth, And the wicked are no more. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah!
