1 Bless, O my soul, the name of the Lord. O Lord my God, you are greatly exalted; you have put on praise and splendor. 2 Who wraps himself in light like a sheet, who stretches out the heavens like a curtain. 3 Who covers his chambers with water like a building with beams; who placed his chariot, as it were, upon swift clouds; who goes on the wings of an eagle. 4 Who made his messengers as swift as wind; his servants, as strong as burning fire. 5 Who lays the foundation of the earth upon its base, so that it will not shake for ages upon ages. 6 You have covered over the abyss as with a garment; and the waters split on the mountains, and endure. 7 At your rebuke, they will flee, flowing down; at the sound of your shout, they will be frightened, pouring themselves out. 8 They will go up from the abyss to the mountains, and descend to the valleys, to this place that you founded for them. 9 You have placed a boundary for the waves of the sea that they will not cross, lest they return to cover the earth. 10 Who releases springs into rivers; they flow between the mountains. 11 They water all the wild animals; the asses will break their thirst. 12 The birds of heaven will settle on them; they will give out a sound of singing from among the branches. 13 Who waters the mountains from his upper treasury; the earth will be satisfied with the fruit of your deeds. 14 Who makes grass grow for beasts, and herbs for the cultivation of the son of man, that bread may come forth from the earth; 15 And wine that gladdens the heart of the son of man, to make the face shine by oil; and bread will support the heart of the son of man. 16 The trees that the Lord created are satisfied, the cedars of Lebanon that he planted: 17 Where the birds make nests; the stork’s dwelling is in the cypresses. 18 The high mountains are for the wild goats; the rocks are security for the conies. 19 He made the moon to calculate times by; the sun knows the time of his setting. 20 You will make darkness and it will be night; in it all the beasts of the forest creep about. 21 The offspring of lions roar to find food, and to seek their sustenance from God. 22 The sun will shine, they gather together; and they lay down in their dwelling place. 23 A son of man will go forth to his work and to his cultivation, until the sunset of evening. 24 How many are your works, O Lord! You have made all of them in wisdom; the earth is full of your possessions. 25 This sea is great and broad in extent; creeping things are there without number, both tiny creatures and large. 26 There the ships go about, [and] this Leviathan you created for the sport of the righteous at the supper of his dwelling place.⁠a 27 All of them rely on you to give their food in its time. 28 You will give it to them, and they gather it; you will open your hand, and they are satisfied with goodness. 29 You will remove your presence, they are dazed; you will gather their spirit and they expire, and return to their dust. 30 You will send out your holy spirit and they are created; and you will make new the surface of the earth. 31 May the glory of the Lord be eternal; the Lord will rejoice in his works. 32 Who looks at the earth, and it shakes; he draws near to the mountains, and they emit smoke. 33 I will sing praise in the presence of the Lord during my life; I will make music to my God while I exist. 34 May my talk be pleasing in his presence; I will rejoice in the word of the Lord. 35 The sinners will be destroyed from the earth, and wicked exist no longer. Bless, O my soul, the name of the Lord. Hallelujah!
