1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1My soul, praise Yahweh! LORD my God, You are very great; You are clothed with majesty and splendor.
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2He wraps Himself in light as if it were a robe, spreading out the sky like a canopy,
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3laying the beams of His palace on the waters above, making the clouds His chariot, walking on the wings of the wind,
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4and making the winds His messengers, flames of fire His servants.
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5He established the earth on its foundations; it will never be shaken.
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6You covered it with the deep as if it were a garment; the waters stood above the mountains.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7At Your rebuke the waters fled; at the sound of Your thunder they hurried away--
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8mountains rose and valleys sank-- to the place You established for them.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9You set a boundary they cannot cross; they will never cover the earth again.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10He causes the springs to gush into the valleys; they flow between the mountains.
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11They supply water for every wild beast; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12The birds of the sky live beside the springs; they sing among the foliage.
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13He waters the mountains from His palace; the earth is satisfied by the fruit of Your labor.
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14He causes grass to grow for the livestock and provides crops for man to cultivate, producing food from the earth,
15[an error occurred while processing this directive]15wine that makes man's heart glad-- making his face shine with oil-- and bread that sustains man's heart.
16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16The trees of the LORD flourish, the cedars of Lebanon that He planted.
17[an error occurred while processing this directive]17There the birds make their nests; the stork makes its home in the pine trees.
18[an error occurred while processing this directive]18The high mountains are for the wild goats; the cliffs are a refuge for hyraxes.
19[an error occurred while processing this directive]19He made the moon to mark the festivals; the sun knows when to set.
20[an error occurred while processing this directive]20You bring darkness, and it becomes night, when all the forest animals stir.
21[an error occurred while processing this directive]21The young lions roar for their prey and seek their food from God.
22[an error occurred while processing this directive]22The sun rises; they go back and lie down in their dens.
23[an error occurred while processing this directive]23Man goes out to his work and to his labor until evening.
24[an error occurred while processing this directive]24How countless are Your works, LORD! In wisdom You have made them all; the earth is full of Your creatures.
25[an error occurred while processing this directive]25Here is the sea, vast and wide, teeming with creatures beyond number-- living things both large and small.
26[an error occurred while processing this directive]26There the ships move about, and Leviathan, which You formed to play there.
27[an error occurred while processing this directive]27All of them wait for You to give them their food at the right time.
28[an error occurred while processing this directive]28When You give it to them, they gather it; when You open Your hand, they are satisfied with good things.
29[an error occurred while processing this directive]29When You hide Your face, they are terrified; when You take away their breath, they die and return to the dust.
30[an error occurred while processing this directive]30When You send Your breath, they are created, and You renew the face of the earth.
31[an error occurred while processing this directive]31May the glory of the LORD endure forever; may the LORD rejoice in His works.
32[an error occurred while processing this directive]32He looks at the earth, and it trembles; He touches the mountains, and they pour out smoke.
33[an error occurred while processing this directive]33I will sing to the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God while I live.
34[an error occurred while processing this directive]34May my meditation be pleasing to Him; I will rejoice in the LORD.
35[an error occurred while processing this directive]35May sinners vanish from the earth and wicked people be no more. My soul, praise Yahweh! Hallelujah!
