O Lord My God, You Are Very Great

104 lBless the Lord, O my soul!

O Lord my God, you are mvery great!

nYou are clothed with splendor and majesty,

2  covering yourself with light as with a garment,

ostretching out the heavens plike a tent.

3  He qlays the beams of his rchambers on the waters;

he makes sthe clouds his chariot;

he rides on tthe wings of the wind;

4  he umakes his messengers winds,

his vministers wa flaming fire.

5  He xset the earth on its foundations,

so that it should never be moved.

6  You ycovered it with the deep as with a garment;

the waters stood above the mountains.

7  At zyour rebuke they fled;

at athe sound of your thunder they btook to flight.

8  The mountains rose, the valleys sank down

to the place that you cappointed for them.

9  You set da boundary that they may not pass,

so that they emight not again cover the earth.

10  You make springs gush forth in the valleys;

they flow between the hills;

11  they fgive drink to every beast of the field;

the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

12  Beside them the birds of the heavens dwell;

they sing among the branches.
