How many are your works

1
Bless, O my soul, YHWH! YHWH, my God, || You have been very great, || You have put on splendor and majesty.
2
Covering Himself [with] light as a garment, || Stretching out the heavens as a curtain,
3
Who is laying the beam of His upper chambers in the waters, || Who is making thick clouds His chariot, || Who is walking on wings of wind,
4
Making His messengersthe winds, || His ministersthe flaming fire.
5
He has founded earth on its bases, || It is not moved for all time and forever.
6
The abyss! You have covered it as with clothing, || Waters stand above hills.
7
They flee from Your rebuke, || They hurry away from the voice of Your thunder.
8
They go up hillsthey go down valleys, || To a place You have founded for them.
9
You have set a border, they do not pass over, || They do not turn back to cover the earth.
10
He is sending forth fountains in valleys, || They go on between hills.
11
They water every beast of the field, || Wild donkeys break their thirst.
12
The bird of the heavens dwells by them, || From between the branches || They give forth the voice.
13
Watering hills from His upper chambers, || The earth is satisfied from the fruit of Your works.
14
Causing grass to spring up for livestock, || And herb for the service of man, || To bring forth bread from the earth,
15
And wineit makes the heart of man glad, || To cause the face to shine from oil, || And breadit supports the heart of man.
16
The trees of YHWH [are] satisfied, || Cedars of Lebanon that He has planted,
17
Where birds make nests, || The storkthe firs [are] her house.
18
The high hills [are] for wild goats, rocks [are] a refuge for hyraxes,
19
He made the moon for seasons, || The sun has known his place of entrance.
20
You set darkness, and it is night, || Every beast of the forest creeps in it.
21
The young lions are roaring for prey, || And to seek their food from God.
22
The sun rises, they are gathered, || And they crouch in their dens.
23
Man goes forth to his work, || And to his serviceuntil evening.
24
How many have been Your works, O YHWH, || You have made all of them in wisdom, || The earth is full of your possessions.
25
This, the sea, great and broad of sides, || There [are] moving thingsinnumerable, || Living creaturessmall with great.
26
There ships go—[and] leviathan, || That You have formed to play in it.
27
All of them look to You, || To give their food in its season.
28
You give to themthey gather, || You open Your handthey [are] satisfied [with] good.
29
You hide Your facethey are troubled, || You gather their spiritthey expire, || And they return to their dust.
30
You send out Your Spirit, they are created, || And You renew the face of the ground.
31
The glory of YHWH is for all time, || YHWH rejoices in His works,
32
Who is looking to earth, and it trembles, || He comes against hills, and they smoke.
33
I sing to YHWH during my life, || I sing praise to my God while I exist.
34
My meditation on Him is sweet, || I rejoice in YHWH.
35
Sinners are consumed from the earth, || And the wicked are no more. Bless, O my soul, YHWH. Praise YAH!
