¹Bless Yahweh, my being. Yahweh my God, you have become exceedingly great; you are clothed with majesty and splendor.

²wrapping yourself in light like a garment, stretching out the skies like a tent curtain,

³who lays the beams of his upper rooms in the waters, who makes the clouds his chariot, who walks on the wings of the wind,

⁴who makes his messengers winds, his servants a flaming fire.

⁵He founded the land upon its settled places; it will not be shaken forever and ever.

⁶The deep, like a garment you covered it; over the mountains the waters stood.

⁷At your rebuke they fled; at the sound of your thunder they hurried away in alarm.

⁸The mountains went up, the valleys went down, to the place that you founded for them.

⁹You set a boundary they will not cross over; they will not return to cover the land.

¹⁰who sends springs into the wadis; between the mountains they go.

¹¹They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild donkeys break their thirst.

¹²Beside them the birds of the skies dwell; from between the branches they give forth a sound.

¹³He waters the mountains from his upper rooms; from the fruit of your works the land is satisfied.

¹⁴making grass grow for the livestock, and herbs for the labor of humankind, to bring forth food from the land.

¹⁵and wine that makes glad the heart of humankind, to make faces shine with oil, and bread that sustains the heart of humankind.

¹⁶The trees of Yahweh are satisfied, the cedars of Lebanon, which he planted,

¹⁷where the little birds make nests; the stork, the cypresses are her house.

¹⁸The high mountains are for the mountain goats; the crags are a refuge for the rock-rabbits.

¹⁹He made the moon for appointed times; the sun knows its setting.

²⁰You set darkness, and it becomes night; in it all the beasts of the forest creep.

²¹The young lions roar for prey, seeking their food from God.

²²The sun rises; they gather themselves in, and into their dens they crouch.

²³A person goes out to his work, and to his labor until evening.

²⁴How many are your works, Yahweh! All of them you made in wisdom; the land is full of your possessions.

²⁵This sea, great and wide on either hand; there are creeping things without number, living creatures small together with great.

²⁶There the ships go about; Leviathan, which you formed to play in it.

²⁷All of them wait for you, to give their food in its time.

²⁸You give to them, they gather; you open your hand, they are satisfied with good things.

²⁹You hide your face, they are terrified; you withdraw their breath, they die, and to their dust they return.

³⁰You send out your breath, they are created; and you renew the face of the ground.

³¹May the weightiness of Yahweh be forever; may Yahweh rejoice in his works.

³²who looks at the land and it trembles; who touches the mountains and they smoke.

³³I will sing to Yahweh all my life; I will make music to my God as long as I continue.

³⁴May my musing be pleasing to him; I rejoice in Yahweh.

³⁵Sinners will perish from the land, and the wicked will be no more. Bless Yahweh, O my being. Praise Yah!
