Psalm 104

Benedic, anima mea
1
Praise the Lord, O my soul  *
O Lord my God, thou art become exceeding glorious; thou art clothed with majesty and honour.
13
He watereth the hills from above *
the earth is filled with the fruit of thy works.
14
He bringeth forth grass for the cattle *
and green herb for the service of men;
15
That he may bring food out of the earth, and wine that maketh glad the heart of man *
and oil to make him a cheerful countenance, and bread to strengthen man’s heart.
25
So is the great and wide sea also *
wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts.
26
There go the ships, and there is that Leviathan *
whom thou hast made to take his pastime therein.
27
These wait all upon thee *
that thou mayest give them meat in due season.
28
When thou givest it them they gather it *
and when thou openest thy hand they are filled with good.
29
When thou hidest thy face they are troubled *
when thou takest away their breath they die, and are turned again to their dust.
30
When thou lettest thy breath go forth they shall be made *
and thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
31
The glorious majesty of the Lord shall endure for ever *
the Lord shall rejoice in his works.
32
The earth shall tremble at the look of him *
if he do but touch the hills, they shall smoke.
