[1] Bless the LORD O my soul, O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour 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; his ministers a flaming fire:
[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] They went up by the mountains, they went down by the valleys, 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 fowl of the heaven have their habitation, they sing among the branches.
[13] He watereth the mountains from his chambers: the earth is satisfied 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 the LORD are satisfied; 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 do creep forth.
[21] The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their meat 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 labour until the evening.
[24] O LORD, 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 take his pastime therein.
[27] These wait all upon thee, that thou mayest give them their meat in due season.
[28] That thou givest unto them they gather; thou openest thine 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 the LORD endure for ever; let the LORD 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 the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.
[34] Let my meditation be sweet unto him: I will rejoice in the LORD.
[35] Let sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless the LORD, O my soul. Praise ye the LORD.
