Psalms Chapter 103

Benedic, anima.

God is to be praised for his mighty works, and wonderful providence.

103:1. For David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul: O Lord my God, thou
art exceedingly great. Thou hast put on praise and beauty:

103:2. And art clothed with light as with a garment. Who stretchest out
the heaven like a pavilion:

103:3. Who coverest the higher rooms thereof with water. Who makest the
clouds thy chariot: who walkest upon the wings of the winds.

103:4. Who makest thy angels spirits: and thy ministers a burning fire.

103:5. Who hast founded the earth upon its own bases: it shall not be
moved for ever and ever.

103:6. The deep like a garment is its clothing: above the mountains
shall the waters stand.

103:7. At thy rebuke they shall flee: at the voice of thy thunder they
shall fear.

103:8. The mountains ascend, and the plains descend into the place which
thou hast founded for them.

103:9. Thou hast set a bound which they shall not pass over; neither
shall they return to cover the earth.

103:10. Thou sendest forth springs in the vales: between the midst of
the hills the waters shall pass.

103:11. All the beasts of the field shall drink: the wild asses shall
expect in their thirst.

103:12. Over them the birds of the air shall dwell: from the midst of
the rocks they shall give forth their voices.

103:13. Thou waterest the hills from thy upper rooms: the earth shall be
filled with the fruit of thy works:

103:14. Bringing forth grass for cattle, and herb for the service of
men. That thou mayst bring bread out of the earth:

103:15. And that wine may cheer the heart of man. That he may make the
face cheerful with oil: and that bread may strengthen man's heart.

103:16. The trees of the field shall be filled, and the cedars of
Libanus which he hath planted:

103:17. There the sparrows shall make their nests. The highest of them
is the house of the heron.

103:18. The high hills are a refuge for the harts, the rock for the
irchins.

103:19. He hath made the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going
down.

103:20. Thou hast appointed darkness, and it is night: in it shall all
the beasts of the woods go about:

103:21. The young lions roaring after their prey, and seeking their meat
from God.

103:22. The sun ariseth, and they are gathered together: and they shall
lie down in their dens.

103:23. Man shall go forth to his work, and to his labour until the
evening.

103:24. How great are thy works, O Lord? thou hast made all things in
wisdom: the earth is filled with thy riches.

103:25. So is this great sea, which stretcheth wide its arms: there are
creeping things without number: Creatures little and great.
