O LORD my God, You are very great; You are clothed with splendor and majesty,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[2] [You are the One] who covers Yourself with light as with a garment, Who stretches out the heavens like a tent curtain,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[3] Who lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters [above the firmament], Who makes the clouds His chariot, Who walks on the wings of the wind,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[4] Who makes winds His messengers, Flames of fire His ministers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[5] He established the earth on its foundations, So that it will not be moved forever and ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[6] You covered it with the deep as with a garment; The waters were standing above the mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[7] At Your rebuke they fled; At the sound of Your thunder they hurried away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[8] The mountains rose, the valleys sank down To the place which You established for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[9] You set a boundary [for the waters] that they may not cross over, So that they will not return to cover the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[10] You send springs into the valleys; Their waters flow among the mountains. [11] They give drink to every beast of the field; The wild donkeys quench their thirst there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[12] Beside them the birds of the heavens have their nests; They lift up their voices and sing among the branches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[13] He waters the mountains from His upper chambers; The earth is satisfied with the fruit of His works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[14] He causes grass to grow for the cattle, And all that the earth produces for cultivation by man, So that he may bring food from the earth\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[15] And wine which makes the heart of man glad, So that he may make his face glisten with oil, And bread to sustain and strengthen man\u2019s heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[16] The trees of the LORD drink their fill, The cedars of Lebanon which He has planted,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[17] Where the birds make their nests; As for the stork, the fir trees are her house. [18] The high mountains are for the wild goats; The rocks are a refuge for the shephanim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[19] He made the moon for the seasons; The sun knows the [exact] place of its setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[20] You [O LORD] make darkness and it becomes night, In which prowls about every wild beast of the forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[21] The young lions roar after their prey And seek their food from God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[22] When the sun arises, they withdraw And lie down in their dens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[23] Man goes out to his work And remains at his labor until evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[24] O LORD, how many and varied are Your works! In wisdom You have made them all; The earth is full of Your riches and Your creatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[25] There is the sea, great and broad, In which are swarms without number, Creatures both small and great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[26] There the ships [of the sea] sail, And Leviathan [the sea monster], which You have formed to play there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[27] They all wait for You To give them their food in its appointed season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[28] You give it to them, they gather it up; You open Your hand, they are filled and satisfied with good [things].<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[29] You hide Your face, they are dismayed; You take away their breath, they die And return to their dust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[30] You send out Your Spirit, they are created; You renew the face of the ground. [31] May the glory of the LORD endure forever; May the LORD rejoice and be glad in His works\u2014<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[32] He looks at the earth, and it trembles; He touches the mountains, and they smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[33] I will sing to the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">[34] May my meditation be sweet and pleasing to Him; As for me, I will rejoice and be glad in the LORD.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today\u2019s Psalms: Psalm 104: 1 Bless and affectionately praise the LORD, O my soul!
