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.
2
0 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.
