Chapter 103

1


 

  For David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul: O Lord my God, thou art exceedingly great. Thou hast put on praise and beauty:  

 

 

--

2


 

  and art clothed with light as with a garment. Who stretchest out the heaven like a pavilion:  

 

 

--

3


 

  who coverest the higher rooms thereof with water. Who makest the clouds thy chariot: who walkest upon the wings of the winds.  

 

 

--

4


 

  Who makest thy angels spirits: and thy ministers a burning fire.  

 

 

--

5


 

  Who hast founded the earth upon its own bases: it shall not be moved for ever and ever.  

 

 

--

6


 

  The deep like a garment is its clothing: above the mountains shall the waters stand.  

 

 

--

7


 

  At thy rebuke they shall flee: at the voice of thy thunder they shall fear.  

 

 

--

8


 

  The mountains ascend, and the plains descend into the place which thou hast founded for them.  

 

 

--

9


 

  Thou hast set a bound which they shall not pass over; neither shall they return to cover the earth.  

 

 

--

10


 

  Thou sendest forth springs in the vales: between the midst of the hills the waters shall pass.  

 

 

--

11


 

  All the beasts of the field shall drink: the wild asses shall expect in their thirst.  

 

 

--

12


 

  Over them the birds of the air shall dwell: from the midst of the rocks they shall give forth their voices.  

 

 

--

13


 

  Thou waterest the hills from thy upper rooms: the earth shall be filled with the fruit of thy works:  

 

 

--

14


 

  Bringing forth grass for cattle, and herb for the service of men. That thou mayst bring bread out of the earth:  

 

 

--

15


 

  and that wine may cheer the heart of man. That he may make the face cheerful with oil: and that bread may strengthen man's heart.  

 

 

--

16


 

  The trees of the field shall be filled, and the cedars of Libanus which he hath planted:  

 

 

--

17


 

  there the sparrows shall make their nests. The highest of them is the house of the heron.  

 

 

--

18


 

  The high hills are a refuge for the harts, the rock for the irchins.  

 

 

--

19


 

  He hath made the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.  

 

 

--

20


 

  Thou hast appointed darkness, and it is night: in it shall all the beasts of the woods go about:  

 

 

--

21


 

  The young lions roaring after their prey, and seeking their meat from God.  

 

 

--

22


 

  The sun ariseth, and they are gathered together: and they shall lie down in their dens.  

 

 

--

23


 

  Man shall go forth to his work, and to his labour until the evening.  

 

 

--

24


 

  How great are thy works, O Lord? thou hast made all things in wisdom: the earth is filled with thy riches.  

 

 

--

25


 

  So is this great sea, which stretcheth wide its arms: there are creeping things without number: Creatures little and great.  

 

 

--

26


 

  There the ships shall go. This sea dragon which thou hast formed to play therein.  

 

 

--

27


 

  All expect of thee that thou give them food in season.  

 

 

--

28


 

  What thou givest to them they shall gather up: when thou openest thy hand, they shall all be filled with good.  

 

 

--

29


 

  But if thou turnest away thy face, they shall be troubled: thou shalt take away their breath, and they shall fail, and shall return to their dust.  

 

 

--

30


 

  Thou shalt send forth thy spirit, and they shall be created: and thou shalt renew the face of the earth.  

 

 

--

31


 

  May the glory of the Lord endure for ever: the Lord shall rejoice in his works.  

 

 

--

32


 

  He looketh upon the earth, and maketh it tremble: he toucheth the mountains, 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


 

  Let my speech be acceptable to him: but I will take delight in the Lord.  

 

 

--

35


 

  Let sinners be consumed out of the earth, and the unjust, so that they be no more: O my soul, bless thou the Lord.
