1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, you are very great; you are clothed with honor and majesty.

2 Who cover yourself with light as with a garment: who stretch out the heavens like a curtain:

3 Who lays the beams of his chambers in the waters: who makes the clouds his chariot: who walks on the wings of the wind:

4 Who makes his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:

5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.

6 You covered it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.

7 At your rebuke they fled; at the voice of your thunder they hurried away.

8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys to the place which you have founded for them.

9 You have set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.

10 He sends the springs into the valleys, which run among the hills.

11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench their thirst.

12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, which sing among the branches.

13 He waters the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your works.

14 He causes 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 makes glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengthens man' heart.

16 The trees of the LORD are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon, which he has planted;

17 Where the birds make their nests: as for the stork, the fir trees are her house.

18 The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies.

19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knows his going down.

20 You make 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 rises, they gather themselves together, and lay them down in their dens.

23 Man goes forth to his work and to his labor until the evening.

24 O LORD, how manifold are your works! in wisdom have you made them all: the earth is full of your riches.

25 So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts.

26 There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom you have made to play therein.

27 These wait all on you; that you may give them their meat in due season.

28 That you give them they gather: you open your hand, they are filled with good.

29 You hide your face, they are troubled: you take away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.

30 You send forth your spirit, they are created: and you renew the face of the earth.

31 The glory of the LORD shall endure for ever: the LORD shall rejoice in his works.

32 He looks on the earth, and it trembles: he touches the hills, and they smoke.

33 I will sing to the LORD as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.

34 My meditation of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the LORD.

35 Let the sinners be consumed out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless you the LORD, O my soul. Praise you the LORD.

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.

20 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 my 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.
