| 1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1Praise the LORD, my soul. LORD my God, you are very great; you are clothed with splendor and majesty. |
| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2The LORD wraps himself in light as with a garment; he stretches out the heavens like a tent |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3and lays the beams of his upper chambers on their waters. He makes the clouds his chariot and rides on the wings of the wind. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4He makes winds his messengers, flames of fire his servants. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5He set the earth on its foundations; it can never be moved. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6You covered it with the watery depths as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7But at your rebuke the waters fled, at the sound of your thunder they took to flight; |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8they flowed over the mountains, they went down into the valleys, to the place you assigned for them. |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9You set a boundary they cannot cross; never again will they cover the earth. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10He makes springs pour water into the ravines; it flows between the mountains. |
| 11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11They give water to all the beasts of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst. |
| 12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12The birds of the sky nest by the waters; they sing among the branches. |
| 13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13He waters the mountains from his upper chambers; the land is satisfied by the fruit of his work. |
| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14He makes grass grow for the cattle, and plants for people to cultivate-- bringing forth food from the earth: |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15wine that gladdens human hearts, oil to make their faces shine, and bread that sustains their hearts. |
| 16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16The trees of the LORD are well watered, the cedars of Lebanon that he planted. |
| 17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17There the birds make their nests; the stork has its home in the junipers. |
| 18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18The high mountains belong to the wild goats; the crags are a refuge for the hyrax. |
| 19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19He made the moon to mark the seasons, and the sun knows when to go down. |
| 20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20You bring darkness, it becomes night, and all the beasts of the forest prowl. |
| 21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21The lions roar for their prey and seek their food from God. |
| 22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22The sun rises, and they steal away; they return and lie down in their dens. |
| 23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23Then people go out to their work, to their labor until evening. |
| 24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24How many are your works, LORD! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures. |
| 25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25There is the sea, vast and spacious, teeming with creatures beyond number-- living things both large and small. |
| 26[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 26There the ships go to and fro, and Leviathan, which you formed to frolic there. |
| 27[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 27All creatures look to you to give them their food at the proper time. |
| 28[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 28When you give it to them, they gather it up; 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 Spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the ground. |
| 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 who looks at the earth, and it trembles, who touches the mountains, and they 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 as long as I live. |
| 34[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 34May my meditation be pleasing to him, as I rejoice in the LORD. |
| 35[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 35But may sinners vanish from the earth and the wicked be no more. Praise the LORD, my soul. Praise the LORD. |
