Bless the
LORD
, O my soul! O
LORD
my God, You
are
very great ;
You
are
clothed
with
splendor
and majesty.
Bless, O my soul ,
Jehovah
! Jehovah,
my God, Thou
hast
been
very great ,
Honour
and majesty Thou
hast
put
on
.
He
wraps
Himself in
light as with
a garment ;
He
stretches
out the heavens like
a tent
,
Covering
himself `with'
light as a garment ,
Stretching
out the heavens as
a curtain
,
laying the beams
of His chambers in the waters above
, making the
clouds His chariot, walking on the
wings of the
wind .
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 ,
He
makes
the
winds
His messengers, flames
of
fire
His servants
.

His messengers --

winds
, His ministers
--

the
earth on its foundations
, never
to
be
moved.
He hath
founded
earth on its bases
, It
is
not
moved to
the
age
and
for
ever
.
You
covered it with
the
deep
like
a
garment;
the
waters
stood
above the
mountains
.
The
abyss!
as
with
clothing
Thou
hast
covered it ,
Above hills
do
waters
stand
.
At
Your
rebuke the
waters
fled;
at
the sound
of Your
thunder they
hurried
away —
From
Thy
rebuke they
flee,
From
the voice
of Thy
thunder haste
away .
the
mountains
rose
and
the
valleys sank
to
the
place You
assigned
for them —
They
go
up
hills
--
they
go
down
valleys ,
Unto
a
place Thou
hast
founded
for them .
You
set
a boundary
they cannot
cross
, that
they may
never
again
cover the earth.
A border
Thou
hast
set,
they pass
not
over
, They turn
not
back
to
cover the earth.
He
sends
forth springs
in the
valleys ;
they
flow
between the
mountains
.
Who
is
sending
forth fountains
in valleys ,
Between hills
they
go
on
.
They give
drink
to
every beast of the field ;
the
wild donkeys
quench
their thirst.
They water
every beast of the field ,
Wild asses
break
their thirst.
The birds
of the air
nest
beside
the springs;
they sing
among
the branches
.
By
them
the fowl
of the heavens
doth
dwell,
From
between
the branches
They give
forth
the voice
.
He
waters
the
mountains
from His chambers ;
the
earth
is
satisfied
by
the fruit of His
works.
Watering
hills
from His upper
chambers ,
From
the fruit of Thy
works is
the
earth
satisfied
.
He
makes
the
grass grow
for the
livestock
and provides
crops
for man to
cultivate
, bringing
forth food
from the earth :
Causing
grass to
spring
up
for cattle,
And herb
for the
service
of
man, To
bring
forth bread
from the earth ,
wine that
gladdens
the heart of man, oil
that
makes
his
face to shine, and bread that
sustains
his
heart.
And
wine --
it
rejoiceth
the heart of man, To
cause
the
face to shine from
oil
, And bread --
the
heart of
man
it
supporteth
.
The trees of the
LORD
have
their
fill
, the
cedars of Lebanon that He planted,
Satisfied
`are'
the trees of Jehovah
, Cedars of Lebanon that He hath
planted,
where the
birds build
their
nests ;
the stork makes
her
home
in
the cypresses
.
Where birds do
make
nests ,
The stork --
the firs
`are'
her
house
.
The high mountains
are for the
wild goats, the
cliffs
a refuge for the
rock
badgers.
The high hills
`
are '
for wild goats, Rocks
`are'
a refuge for conies,
He made the moon to
mark
the
seasons ;
the sun knows
when
to
set
.
He made the moon for
seasons ,
The sun hath
known
his
place
of
entrance
.
You
bring
darkness, and it becomes
night, when
all
the
beasts
of the forest prowl
.
Thou
settest
darkness, and it is
night, In
it
doth
every
beast
of the forest creep
.
The young lions roar
for their
prey and seek their
food
from God.
The young lions are
roaring
for prey ,
And to
seek from God their
food
.
The sun rises
, and
they withdraw;
they
lie
down
in their dens.
The sun riseth
, they are
gathered,
And
in their dens they
crouch
.
Man goes
forth to his work and to his labor
until
evening.
Man goeth
forth to his work ,
And to his service
--
till
evening.
How many are
Your
works, O LORD!
In wisdom You
have
made them
all;
the earth is
full
of Your
creatures
.
How many have
been
Thy
works, O Jehovah,
All
of
them
in wisdom Thou
hast
made ,
Full
is
the earth of thy
possessions
.
Here
is
the sea, vast
and wide
, teeming
with
creatures
beyond
number
, living things
both
great
and
small.
This,
the sea, great
and broad
of
sides
, There
`are'
moving
things
--
innumerable
, Living creatures
--
small with
great
.
There the
ships pass,
and
Leviathan, which
You
formed to frolic
there
.
There do
ships go:
leviathan, That
Thou
hast
formed to play
in
it
.
All creatures
look to
You
to give them
their food in due
season.
All of
them
unto
Thee
do
look ,
To give their food in its
season.
When
You
give it
to them ,
they gather it
up;
when
You
open Your
hand ,
they are satisfied with good things
.
Thou
dost
give to them --
they gather ,
Thou
dost
open Thy
hand --
they `
are '
satisfied `
with '
good.
When
You
hide
Your
face ,
they are terrified;
when
You
take
away
their
breath
, they die
and return
to
dust.
Thou
hidest
Thy
face --
they are troubled
, Thou
gatherest
their
spirit
--
they expire,
And unto
their
dust they
turn
back
.
When
You
send
Your
Spirit, they are created, and You
renew
the face of the earth
.
Thou
sendest
out
Thy
Spirit, they are created, And Thou
renewest
the face of the ground
.
May
the glory
of the
LORD
endure
forever;
may
the LORD
rejoice
in His works .
The honour
of Jehovah
is
to
the age,
Jehovah
rejoiceth
in His works ,
He
looks
on
the
earth, and it trembles;
He touches
the
mountains
, and they smolder
.
Who
is
looking
to
earth, and it trembleth,
He cometh
against
hills
, and they smoke
.
I will
sing to the
LORD
all
my life ;
I will
sing praise to my God while I have
my
being
.
I sing to Jehovah
during
my life ,
I sing praise to my God while I exist
.
May
my meditation be
pleasing
to
Him, for
I rejoice in the
LORD
.
Sweet
is
my meditation on
Him, I --
I
do
rejoice in Jehovah
.
May
sinners vanish
from the earth and the wicked be
no more. Bless the
LORD
, O my soul. Hallelujah
!
Consumed
are
sinners from the earth ,
And the wicked are
no more. Bless, O my soul ,
Jehovah
. Praise
ye
Jehovah
!
