Let all that I am praise the LORD. O LORD my God, how great you are! You are robed with honor and majesty. |
2
|
You are dressed in a robe of light. You stretch out the starry curtain of the heavens; |
3
|
you lay out the rafters of your home in the rain clouds. You make the clouds your chariot; you ride upon the wings of the wind. |
4
|
The winds are your messengers; flames of fire are your servants. |
5
|
You placed the world on its foundation so it would never be moved. |
6
|
You clothed the earth with floods of water, water that covered even the mountains. |
7
|
At your command, the water fled; at the sound of your thunder, it hurried away. |
8
|
Mountains rose and valleys sank to the levels you decreed. |
9
|
Then you set a firm boundary for the seas, so they would never again cover the earth. |
10
|
You make springs pour water into the ravines, so streams gush down from the mountains. |
11
|
They provide water for all the animals, and the wild donkeys quench their thirst. |
12
|
The birds nest beside the streams and sing among the branches of the trees. |
13
|
You send rain on the mountains from your heavenly home, and you fill the earth with the fruit of your labor. |
14
|
You cause grass to grow for the livestock and plants for people to use. You allow them to produce food from the earth-- |
15
|
wine to make them glad, olive oil to soothe their skin, and bread to give them strength. |
16
|
The trees of the LORD are well cared for-- the cedars of Lebanon that he planted. |
17
|
There the birds make their nests, and the storks make their homes in the cypresses. |
18
|
High in the mountains live the wild goats, and the rocks form a refuge for the hyraxes. |
19
|
You made the moon to mark the seasons, and the sun knows when to set. |
20
|
You send the darkness, and it becomes night, when all the forest animals prowl about. |
21
|
Then the young lions roar for their prey, stalking the food provided by God. |
22
|
At dawn they slink back into their dens to rest. |
23
|
Then people go off to their work, where they labor until evening. |
24
|
O LORD, what a variety of things you have made! In wisdom you have made them all. The earth is full of your creatures. |
25
|
Here is the ocean, vast and wide, teeming with life of every kind, both large and small. |
26
|
See the ships sailing along, and Leviathan, which you made to play in the sea. |
27
|
They all depend on you to give them food as they need it. |
28
|
When you supply it, they gather it. You open your hand to feed them, and they are richly satisfied. |
29
|
But if you turn away from them, they panic. When you take away their breath, they die and turn again to dust. |
30
|
When you give them your breath, life is created, and you renew the face of the earth. |
31
|
May the glory of the LORD continue forever! The LORD takes pleasure in all he has made! |
32
|
The earth trembles at his glance; the mountains smoke at his touch. |
33
|
I will sing to the LORD as long as I live. I will praise my God to my last breath! |
34
|
May all my thoughts be pleasing to him, for I rejoice in the LORD. |
35
|
Let all sinners vanish from the face of the earth; let the wicked disappear forever. Let all that I am praise the LORD. Praise the LORD! |
