The Glory of Yahweh Endures Forever

(cf. Gen 1:1–31 )
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:1 -

Bless Yahweh, O my soul!

O Yahweh my God, You are very great;

You are clothed with splendor and majesty,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:2 -

Wrapping Yourself with light as with a cloak,

Stretching out the heavens like a tent curtain.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:3 -

[fn]He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters;

[fn]He sets up the clouds to be His chariot;

[fn]He walks upon the wings of the wind;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:4 -

[fn]He makes His [fn]angels the winds,

His ministers flaming fire.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:5 -

He founded the earth upon its place,

So that it will not [fn]shake forever and ever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:6 -

You covered it with the deep as with a garment;

The waters were standing above the mountains.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:7 -

At Your rebuke they fled,

At the sound of Your thunder they hurried away in alarm.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:8 -

The mountains went up; the valleys went down

To the place which You founded for them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:9 -

You set a boundary that they may not pass over,

So that they will not return to cover the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:10 -

[fn]He sends forth springs in the valleys;

They flow between the mountains;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:11 -

They give water to every beast of the field;

The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:12 -

Above them the birds of the heavens dwell;

They give forth their voices among the branches.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:13 -

[fn]He gives water to the mountains from His upper chambers;

The earth is satisfied with the fruit of His works.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:14 -

[fn]He causes the grass to grow for the [fn]cattle,

And vegetation for man’s [fn]cultivation,

To bring forth [fn]food from the earth,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:15 -

And wine which makes man’s heart glad,

To make his face glisten more than oil,

And [fn]food which sustains man’s heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:16 -

The trees of Yahweh are satisfied,

The cedars of Lebanon which He planted,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:17 -

Where the birds build their nests,

The stork’s home is in the [fn]fir trees.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:18 -

The high mountains are for the wild goats;

The cliffs are a refuge for the [fn]shephanim.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:19 -

He made the moon for the seasons;

The sun knows the place of its setting.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:20 -

You appoint darkness so that it becomes night,

In which all the beasts of the forest creep about.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:21 -

The young lions roar to go after their prey

And to seek their food from God.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:22 -

When the sun rises they gather together

And lie down in their dens.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:23 -

Man goes forth to his work

And to his labor until evening.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:24 -

How numerous are Your works, O Yahweh!

[fn]In wisdom You have made them all;

The earth is full of Your [fn]possessions.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:25 -

This is the sea, great and [fn]broad,

There the creeping things are without number,

Creatures both small and great.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:26 -

There the ships move along,

And [fn]Leviathan, which You have formed to play in it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:27 -

They all wait for You

To give them their food in [fn]due season.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:28 -

You give to them, they gather it up;

You open Your hand, they are satisfied with good.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:29 -

You hide Your face, they are dismayed;

You take away their [fn]spirit, they breathe their last

And return to their dust.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:30 -

You send forth Your [fn]Spirit, they are created;

And You renew the face of the ground.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:31 -

Let the glory of Yahweh endure forever;

Let Yahweh be glad in His works;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:32 -

[fn]He looks at the earth, and it trembles;

He touches the mountains, and they smoke.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:33 -

[fn]I will sing to Yahweh throughout my life;

[fn]I will sing praise to my God [fn]while I have my being.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:34 -

Let my musing be pleasing to Him;

As for me, I shall be glad in Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:35 -

Let sinners be consumed from the earth

And let the wicked be no more.

Bless Yahweh, O my soul.

[fn]Praise Yah!
