Psalms 104Book 19 of 66 · 35 verses · MBT primary, NKJV fallback where MBT pending
- Bless the LORD, O my soul! O LORD my God, You are very great: You are clothed with honor and majesty,
- Who cover Yourself with light as with a garment, Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain.
- He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters, Who makes the clouds His chariot, Who walks on the wings of the wind,
- Who makes His angels spirits, His ministers a flame of fire.
- You who laid the foundations of the earth, so that it should not be moved forever,
- You covered it with the deep as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains.
- At Your rebuke they fled; at the voice of Your thunder they hastened away.
- They went up over the mountains; they went down into the valleys, to the place which You founded for them.
- You set a boundary they cannot cross, so they may not return to cover the earth again.
- He sends the springs into the valleys; they flow between the hills.
- They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
- Beside them the birds of the heavens have their home; they sing among the branches.
- He waters the mountains from His upper chambers; the earth is satisfied with the fruit of His works.
- He causes the grass to grow for the cattle, and vegetation for the service of man, that he may bring forth food from the earth.
- And wine that makes glad the heart of man, oil to make his face shine, and bread which strengthens man's heart.
- The trees of the LORD are full of sap, the cedars of Lebanon which He planted.
- Where the birds make their nests; the stork has her home in the fir trees.
- The high hills are for the wild goats; the cliffs are a refuge for the rock badgers.
- He appointed the moon for seasons; the sun knows its going down.
- You make darkness, and it is night, in which all the beasts of the forest creep about.
- The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God.
- When the sun rises, they gather together and lie down in their dens.
- Man goes out to his work and to his labor until the evening.
- O LORD, how manifold are Your works! In wisdom You have made them all. The earth is full of Your possessions.
- This great and wide sea, in which are innumerable teeming things, living things both small and great.
- There the ships sail about; there is that Leviathan which You have made to play there.
- These all wait for You, that You may give them their food in due season.
- What You give them they gather in; You open Your hand, they are filled with good.
- You hide Your face, they are troubled; You take away their breath, they die and return to their dust.
- You send forth Your Spirit, they are created; and You renew the face of the earth.
- May the glory of the LORD endure forever; may the LORD rejoice in His works.
- He looks on the earth, and it trembles; He touches the hills, and they smoke.
- I will sing to the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
- May my meditation be sweet to Him; I will be glad in the LORD.
- May sinners be consumed from the earth, and the wicked be no more. Bless the LORD, O my soul! Praise the LORD!
