| [1]Bless 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, O my soul. O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 my God, Thou art very great; Thou art clothed with glory and majesty. |
[1]My soule blesse thou God: O God my Lord thou art become exceeding great, thou hast put on glory and maiestie |
| [2]Who coverest Thyself with light as with a garment, who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain; |
[2]Who is decked with light as it were with a garment: spreadyng out the heauens like a curtayne |
| [3]Who layest the beams of Thine upper chambers in the waters, who makest the clouds Thy chariot, who walkest upon the wings of the wind; |
[3]Who seeleth his vpper chaumbers with waters: and maketh the cloudes his charriot, and walketh vpon the wynges of the wynde |
| [4]Who makest winds Thy messengers, the flaming fire Thy ministers. |
[4]He maketh his angels spirites: and his ministers a flaming fire |
| [5]Who didst establish the earth upon its foundations, that it should not be moved for ever and ever; |
[5]He hath layde the earth sure vpon her foundations: that it can neuer moue at any tyme |
| [6]Thou didst cover it with the deep as with a vesture; the waters stood above the mountains. |
[6]Thou coueredst it with the deepe, lyke as with a garment: the waters stande vpon the hilles |
| [7]At Thy rebuke they fled, at the voice of Thy thunder they hasted away— |
[7]At thy rebuke they flee: at the noyse of thy thunder they bluster downe apace |
| [8]The mountains rose, the valleys sank down—unto the place which Thou hadst founded for them; |
[8]The hilles mount aloft: and the valleys settle downe beneath vnto the place where thou hast layde a foundation for them |
| [9]Thou didst set a bound which they should not pass over, that they might not return to cover the earth. |
[9]Thou hast set them their boundes which they shall not passe: neither shall they returne agayne to couer the earth |
| [10]Who sendest forth springs into the valleys; they run between the mountains; |
[10]Who also causeth the springes which runne betweene the hilles: to flowe into the riuers |
| [11]They give drink to every beast of the field, the wild asses quench their thirst. |
[11]All beastes of the fielde drinke therof: and the wylde asses quench their thirst |
| [12]Beside them dwell the fowl of the heaven, from among the branches they sing. |
[12]The foules of the ayre haue their habitation nigh vnto them: singing out of the midst of the bowes [of trees. |
| [13]Who waterest the mountains from Thine upper chambers; the earth is full of the fruit of Thy works. |
[13]He watereth the hilles from aboue: the earth is replenished with the fruite of thy workes |
| [14]Who causeth the grass to spring up for the cattle, and herb for the service of man; to bring forth bread out of the earth, |
[14]He causeth grasse to growe for cattell: and hearbes for the vse of man |
| [15]And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, making the face brighter than oil, and bread that stayeth man's heart. |
[15]That he may bryng foorth foode out of the earth: both wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oyle to make hym haue a chearefull countenaunce, & also bread to strengthen mans heart |
| [16]The trees of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 have their fill, the cedars of Lebanon, which He hath planted; |
[16]The trees of God be satisfied: euen the Cedars of Libanus which he hath planted |
| [17]Wherein the birds make their nests; as for the stork, the fir-trees are her house. |
[17]Wherin the birdes make their nestes: in the fyrre trees the storke buyldeth |
| [18]The high mountains are for the wild goats; the rocks are a refuge for the conies. |
[18]The high hilles are a refuge for goates: and so are the stonie rockes for conies |
| [19]Who appointedst the moon for seasons; the sun knoweth his going down. |
[19]He hath made the moone for certayne seasons: and the sunne knoweth his goyng downe |
| [20]Thou makest darkness, and it is night, wherein all the beasts of the forest do creep forth. |
[20]Thou makest darknes and it is night: wherein all the beastes of the forrest do go abrode |
| [21]The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God. |
[21]The Lions do roare after a pray: and in seeking their meate of God |
| [22]The sun ariseth, they slink away, and couch in their dens. |
[22]When the sunne ariseth, they recoyle backe: and lay them downe to rest in their dennes |
| [23]Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening. |
[23]Man goeth foorth to his worke: and to do his seruice vntyll the euening |
| [24]How manifold are Thy works, O 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇! In wisdom hast Thou made them all; the earth is full of Thy creatures. |
[24]O God howe manyfolde are thy workes? thou hast made them al in wisdome, the earth is ful of thy ryches |
| [25]Yonder sea, great and wide, therein are creeping innumerable, living creatures, both small and great. |
[25]So is the sea it selfe large and wyde in compasse: wherein are thinges creeping innumerable, both small and great beastes |
| [26]There go the ships; there is leviathan, whom Thou hast formed to sport therein. |
[26]There go the shippes, and there is that Leuiathan: whom thou hast made to take his pastime therin |
| [27]All of them wait for Thee, that Thou mayest give them their food in due season. |
[27]These wayte all vpon thee: that thou mayest geue them meate in due season |
| [28]Thou givest it unto them, they gather it; Thou openest Thy hand, they are satisfied with good. |
[28]When thou geuest it them, they gather it: and when thou openest thyne hand, they are filled with that which is good |
| [29]Thou hidest Thy face, they vanish; Thou withdrawest their breath, they perish, and return to their dust. |
[29]When thou hydest thy face, they are troubled: when thou takest away their spirite, they dye, and are turned agayne to their dust |
| [30]Thou sendest forth Thy spirit, they are created; and Thou renewest the face of the earth. |
[30]When thou sendest out thy spirite, they be recreated: and thou reuiuest the face of the earth |
| [31]May the glory of 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 endure for ever; let 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 rejoice in His works! |
[31]The glorious maiestie of God shal endure for euer: God wyll reioyce in his workes |
| [32]Who looketh on the earth, and it trembleth; He toucheth the mountains, and they smoke. |
[32]He beholdeth the earth, & it trembleth: he toucheth the hilles, and they smoke |
| [33]I will sing unto 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇 as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have any being. |
[33]I wyll syng vnto God as long as I liue: I will sing psalmes vnto my Lord so long as I shall be |
| [34]Let my musing be sweet unto Him; as for me, I will rejoice in 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇. |
[34]My meditations of hym shalbe very pleasaunt: for all my ioy shalbe in God |
| [35]Let sinners cease out of the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless 𐤉𐤇𐤅𐤇, O my soul. Hallelujah. |
[35]As for sinners they shalbe consumed out of the earth: and the vngodly shall come to an ende, blesse thou God O my soule, [and] prayse you the Lorde |
