Darby Bible

1BlessH1288 Jehovah, O my soulH5315! Jehovah my 1GodH430, thou art veryH3966 greatH1431; thou art clothedH3847 with majestyH1926 and splendour;2Covering thyself with lightH216 as with a garmentH8008, stretchingH5186 out the heavensH8064 like a tent-curtain; —3Who layeth the beams of his upperH5944 chambersH5944 in the watersH4325, who maketh cloudsH5645 his chariot, who walketh upon the wingsH3671 of the windH7307;4Who maketh his angelsH4397 spiritsH7307; his ministers a flame of fireH784.5He laid the earthH776 upon its foundations: it shall not be removed for everH5703.6Thou hadst coveredH3680 it with the deepH8415, as with a vesture; the watersH4325 stoodH5975 above the mountainsH2022:7At thy rebukeH1606 they fledH5127, at the voiceH6963 of thy thunderH6963 they hasted away; —8The mountainsH2022 rose, the valleysH1237 sank, unto the placeH4725 which thou hadst foundedH3245 for them; —9Thou hast setH7760 a bound which they may not passH5674 over, that they turnH7725 not again to coverH3680 the earthH776.10He sendeth the springsH4599 into the valleys: they run among the mountainsH2022;11They giveH8248 drinkH8248 to every beast of the fieldH7704; the wild asses quench their thirstH6772.12The birdsH5775 of heavenH8064 dwellH7931 by them; they giveH5414 forth their voiceH6963 from among the branches.13He watereth the mountainsH2022 from his upper-chambers: the earthH776 is satisfiedH7646 with the fruitH6529 of thy worksH4639.14He maketh the grassH2682 to growH6779 for the cattleH929, and herb for the serviceH5656 of manH120; bringingH3318 forthH3318 breadH3899 out of the earthH776,15And wineH3196 which gladdeneth the heartH3824 of man; making [his] faceH6440 shine with oilH8081; and with breadH3899 he strengtheneth man's heartH3824.16The treesH6086 of Jehovah are satisfiedH7646, the cedarsH730 of LebanonH3844, which he hath plantedH5193,17WhereH834 the birdsH6833 makeH7077 their nestsH7077; [as for] the storkH2624, the firH1265 trees are her houseH1004.18The highH1364 mountainsH2022 are for the wild goatsH3277; the cliffsH5553, a refugeH4268 for the rock-badgers.19He madeH6213 the moonH3394 for seasons: the sunH8121 knoweth its going down.20Thou makest darknessH2822, and it is nightH3915, wherein all the beasts of the forestH3293 creepH7430 forth:21The youngH3715 lionsH3715 roarH7580 after the preyH2964, and to seekH1245 their foodH400 from 2GodH410.22The sunH8121 ariseth, they retreat, and layH7257 them downH7257 in their densH4585.23ManH120 goeth forthH3318 unto his workH6467, and to his labour until the eveningH6153.24HowH4100 manifold are thy worksH4639, O Jehovah! in wisdomH2451 hast thou madeH6213 them all: the earthH776 is fullH4390 of thy riches.25Yonder is the greatH1419 and wideH7342 seaH3220: therein are moving thingsH7431 innumerable, living creatures smallH6996 and greatH1419.26There goH1980 the shipsH591; [there] that leviathanH3882, which thou hast formedH3335 to playH7832 therein.27These all look unto thee, that thou mayest giveH5414 their foodH400 in its season:28That thou givest unto them, they gatherH3950; thou openest thy handH3027, they are filled with goodH2896.29Thou hidest thy faceH6440, they are troubled; thou takest awayH7725 their breathH7307, they expireH1478 and returnH7725 to their dustH6083.30Thou sendest forthH7971 thy spiritH7307, they are createdH1254, and thou renewest the faceH6440 of the earthH127.31The gloryH3519 of Jehovah will endure for everH5769; Jehovah will rejoiceH8055 in his worksH4639.32He looketh on the earthH776, and it trembleth; he toucheth the mountainsH2022, and they smokeH6225.33I will singH2167 unto Jehovah as long as I live; I will singH2167 psalms to my 3GodH430 while I have my being.34My meditation shall be pleasant unto him; I will rejoiceH8055 in Jehovah.35SinnersH2400 shall be consumed out of the earthH776, and the wickedH7563 shall be no moreH4480. BlessH1288 Jehovah, O my soulH5315. Hallelujah!
