| Psalms 104: (YLT) |
| 1) Bless, O my soul, Jehovah! Jehovah, my God, Thou hast been very great, Honour and majesty Thou hast put on. |
| 2) Covering himself [with] light as a garment, Stretching out the heavens as a curtain, |
| 3) Who is laying the beam of His upper chambers in the waters, Who is making thick clouds His chariot, Who is walking on wings of wind, |
| 4) Making His messengers -- the winds, His ministers -- the flaming fire. |
| 5) He hath founded earth on its bases, It is not moved to the age and for ever. |
| 6) The abyss! as with clothing Thou hast covered it, Above hills do waters stand. |
| 7) From Thy rebuke they flee, From the voice of Thy thunder haste away. |
| 8) They go up hills -- they go down valleys, Unto a place Thou hast founded for them. |
| 9) A border Thou hast set, they pass not over, They turn not back to cover the earth. |
| 10) Who is sending forth fountains in valleys, Between hills they go on. |
| 11) They water every beast of the field, Wild asses break their thirst. |
| 12) By them the fowl of the heavens doth dwell, From between the branches They give forth the voice. |
| 13) Watering hills from His upper chambers, From the fruit of Thy works is the earth satisfied. |
| 14) Causing grass to spring up for cattle, And herb for the service of man, To bring forth bread from the earth, |
| 15) And wine -- it rejoiceth the heart of man, To cause the face to shine from oil, And bread -- the heart of man it supporteth. |
| 16) Satisfied [are] the trees of Jehovah, Cedars of Lebanon that He hath planted, |
| 17) Where birds do make nests, The stork -- the firs [are] her house. |
| 18) The high hills [are] for wild goats, Rocks [are] a refuge for conies, |
| 19) He made the moon for seasons, The sun hath known his place of entrance. |
| 20) Thou settest darkness, and it is night, In it doth every beast of the forest creep. |
| 21) The young lions are roaring for prey, And to seek from God their food. |
| 22) The sun riseth, they are gathered, And in their dens they crouch. |
| 23) Man goeth forth to his work, And to his service -- till evening. |
| 24) How many have been Thy works, O Jehovah, All of them in wisdom Thou hast made, Full is the earth of thy possessions. |
| 25) This, the sea, great and broad of sides, There [are] moving things -- innumerable, Living creatures -- small with great. |
| 26) There do ships go: leviathan, That Thou hast formed to play in it. |
| 27) All of them unto Thee do look, To give their food in its season. |
| 28) Thou dost give to them -- they gather, Thou dost open Thy hand -- they [are] satisfied [with] good. |
| 29) Thou hidest Thy face -- they are troubled, Thou gatherest their spirit -- they expire, And unto their dust they turn back. |
| 30) Thou sendest out Thy Spirit, they are created, And Thou renewest the face of the ground. |
| 31) The honour of Jehovah is to the age, Jehovah rejoiceth in His works, |
| 32) Who is looking to earth, and it trembleth, He cometh against hills, and they smoke. |
| 33) I sing to Jehovah during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist. |
| 34) Sweet is my meditation on Him, I -- I do rejoice in Jehovah. |
| 35) Consumed are sinners from the earth, And the wicked are no more. Bless, O my soul, Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah! |
