Context of Psalms 104:31
29Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled; thou takest away their breath, they expire and return to their dust. 30Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created, and thou renewest the face of the earth. The glory of Jehovah will endure for ever; Jehovah will rejoice in his works. 32He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth; he toucheth the mountains, and they smoke. 33I will sing unto Jehovah as long as I live; I will sing psalms to my God while I have my being.
