Psalms 104

Jehovah’s care over all his works.

Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment;

Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters;

Who maketh winds his messengers;

Who laid the foundations of the earth,

Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a vesture;

At thy rebuke they fled;

(The mountains rose, the valleys sank down)

Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over;

He sendeth forth springs into the valleys;

They give drink to every beast of the field;

By them the birds of the heavens have their habitation;

He watereth the mountains from his chambers:

He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle,

And wine that maketh glad the heart of man,

The trees of Jehovah are filled with moisture,

Where the birds make their nests:

The high mountains are for the wild goats;

He appointed the moon for seasons:

Thou makest darkness, and it is night,

The young lions roar after their prey,

The sun ariseth, they get them away,

Man goeth forth unto his work

O Jehovah, how manifold are thy works!

Yonder is the sea, great and wide,

There go the ships;

These wait all for thee,

Thou givest unto them, they gather;

Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled;

Thou sendest forth thy Spirit, they are created;

Let the glory of Jehovah endure for ever;

Who looketh on the earth, and it trembleth;

I will sing unto Jehovah as long as I live:

Let my meditation be sweet unto him:

Let sinners be consumed out of the earth.
