[A Psalm of David.]
[1]בָּרֲכִ֥י נַפְשִׁ֗י אֶת־יְה֫וָ֥ה יְהוָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהַי גָּדַ֣לְתָּ מְּאֹ֑ד הֹ֭וד וְהָדָ֣ר לָבָֽשְׁתָּ׃ [1]Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou art very great; thou hast clothed thyself with praise and honour:
[2]עֹֽטֶה־אֹ֭ור כַּשַּׂלְמָ֑ה נֹוטֶ֥ה מַ֗יִם כַּיְרִיעָֽה׃ [2]who dost robe thyself with light as with a garment; spreading out the heaven as a curtain.
[3]הַ֥מְקָרֶֽה בַמַּ֗יִם עֲ‍ֽלִיֹּ֫ותָ֥יו הַשָּׂם־עָבִ֥ים רְכוּבֹ֑ו הַֽ֝מְהַלֵּ֗ךְ עַל־כַּנְפֵי־רֽוּחַ׃ [3]Who covers his chambers with waters; who makes the clouds his chariot; who walks on the wings of the wind.
[4]עֹשֶׂ֣ה מַלְאָכָ֣יו רוּחֹ֑ות מְ֝שָׁרְתָ֗יו אֵ֣שׁ לֹהֵֽט׃ [4]Who makes his angels spirits, and his ministers a flaming fire.
[5]יָֽסַד־אֶ֭רֶץ עַל־מְכֹונֶ֑יהָ בַּל־תִּ֝מֹּ֗וט עֹולָ֥ם וָעֶֽד׃ [5]Who establishes the earth on her sure foundation: it shall not be moved for ever.
[6]תְּ֭הֹום כַּלְּב֣וּשׁ כִּסִּיתֹ֑ו עַל־הָ֝רִ֗ים יַֽעַמְדוּ־מָֽיִם׃ [6]The deep, as it were a garment, is his covering: the waters shall stand on the hills.
[7]מִן־גַּעֲרָ֣תְךָ֣ יְנוּס֑וּן מִן־קֹ֥ול רַֽ֝עַמְךָ֗ יֵחָפֵזֽוּן׃ [7]At thy rebuke they shall flee; at the voice of thy thunder they shall be alarmed.
[8]יַעֲל֣וּ הָ֭רִים יֵרְד֣וּ בְקָעֹ֑ות אֶל־מְ֝קֹ֗ום זֶ֤ה ׀ יָסַ֬דְתָּ לָהֶֽם׃ [8]They go up to the mountains, and down to the plains, to the place which thou hast founded for them.
[9]גְּֽבוּלשַׂ֭־מְתָּ בַּל־יַֽעֲבֹר֑וּן בַּל־יְ֝שׁוּב֗וּן לְכַסֹּ֥ות הָאָֽרֶץ׃ [9]Thou hast set a bound which they shall not pass, neither shall they turn again to cover the earth.
[10]הַֽמְשַׁלֵּ֣חַ מַ֭עְיָנִים בַּנְּחָלִ֑ים בֵּ֥ין הָ֝רִ֗ים יְהַלֵּכֽוּן׃ [10]He sends forth his fountains among the valleys: the waters shall run between the mountains.
[11]יַ֭שְׁקוּ כָּל־חַיְתֹ֣ו שָׂדָ֑י יִשְׁבְּר֖וּ פְרָאִ֣ים צְמָאָֽם׃ [11]They shall give drink to all the wild beasts of the field: the wild asses shall take of them to quench their thirst.
[12]עֲ֭לֵיהֶם עֹוף־הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם יִשְׁכֹּ֑ון מִבֵּ֥ין עֳ֝פָאיִ֗ם יִתְּנוּ־קֹֽול׃ [12]By them shall the birds of the sky lodge: they shall utter a voice out of the midst of the rocks.
[13]מַשְׁקֶ֣ה הָ֭רִים מֵעֲלִיֹּותָ֑יו מִפְּרִ֥י מַ֝עֲשֶׂ֗יךָ תִּשְׂבַּ֥ע הָאָֽרֶץ׃ [13]He waters the mountains from his chambers: the earth shall be satisfied with the fruit of thy works.
[14]מַצְמִ֤יחַ חָצִ֨יר ׀ לַבְּהֵמָ֗ה וְ֭עֵשֶׂב לַעֲבֹדַ֣ת הָאָדָ֑ם לְהֹ֥וצִיא לֶ֝֗חֶם מִן־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ [14]He makes grass to grow for the cattle, and green herb for the service of men, to bring bread out of the earth;
[15]וְיַ֤יִן ׀ יְשַׂמַּ֬ח לְֽבַב־אֱנֹ֗ושׁ לְהַצְהִ֣יל פָּנִ֣ים מִשָּׁ֑מֶן וְ֝לֶ֗חֶם לְֽבַב־אֱנֹ֥ושׁ יִסְעָֽד׃ [15]and wine makes glad the heart of man, to make his face cheerful with oil: and bread strengthens man's heart.
[16]יִ֭שְׂבְּעוּ עֲצֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה אַֽרְזֵ֥י לְ֝בָנֹ֗ון אֲשֶׁ֣ר נָטָֽע׃ [16]The trees of the plain shall be full of sap; even the cedars of Libanus which he has planted.
[17]אֲשֶׁרשָׁ֭־ם צִפֳּרִ֣ים יְקַנֵּ֑נוּ חֲ֝סִידָ֗ה בְּרֹושִׁ֥ים בֵּיתָֽהּ׃ [17]There the sparrows will build their nests; and the house of the heron takes the lead among them.
[18]הָרִ֣ים הַ֭גְּבֹהִים לַיְּעֵלִ֑ים סְ֝לָעִ֗ים מַחְסֶ֥ה לַֽשְׁפַנִּֽים׃ [18]The high mountains are a refuge for the stags, and the rock for the rabbits.
[19]עָשָׂ֣ה יָ֭רֵחַ לְמֹועֲדִ֑ים מֶשׁ יָדַ֥ע מְבֹואֹֽו׃ [19]He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knows his going down.
[20]תָּֽשֶׁת־חֹ֭שֶׁךְ וִ֣יהִי לָ֑יְלָה בֹּֽו־תִ֝רְמֹ֗שׂ כָּל־חַיְתֹו־יָֽעַר׃ [20]Thou didst make darkness, and it was night; in it all the wild beasts of the forest will be abroad:
[21]הַ֭כְּפִירִים שֹׁאֲגִ֣ים לַטָּ֑רֶף וּלְבַקֵּ֖שׁ מֵאֵ֣ל אָכְלָֽם׃ [21]even young lions roaring for prey, and to seek meat for themselves from God.
[22]תִּזְרַ֣ח הַ֭שֶּׁמֶשׁ יֵאָסֵפ֑וּן וְאֶל־מְ֝עֹונֹתָ֗ם יִרְבָּצֽוּן׃ [22]The sun arises, and they shall be gathered together, and shall lie down in their dens.
[23]יֵצֵ֣א אָדָ֣ם לְפָעֳלֹ֑ו וְֽלַעֲבֹ֖דָתֹ֣ו עֲדֵי־עָֽרֶב׃ [23]Man shall go forth to his work, and to his labour till evening.
[24]מָֽה־רַבּ֬וּ מַעֲשֶׂ֨יךָ ׀ יְֽהוָ֗ה כֻּ֭לָּם בְּחָכְמָ֣ה עָשִׂ֑יתָ מָלְאָ֥ה הָ֝אָ֗רֶץ קִנְיָנֶֽךָ׃ [24]How great are thy works, O Lord! in wisdom hast thou wrought them all: the earth is filled with thy creation.
[25]זֶ֤ה ׀ הַיָּ֥ם גָּדֹול֮ וּרְחַ֪ב יָ֫דָ֥יִם שָֽׁם־רֶ֭מֶשׂ וְאֵ֣ין מִסְפָּ֑ר חַיֹּ֥ות קְ֝טַנֹּ֗ות עִם־גְּדֹלֹֽות׃ [25]So is this great and wide sea: there are things creeping innumerable, small animals and great.
[26]ם אֳנִיֹּ֣ות יְהַלֵּכ֑וּן לִ֝וְיָתָ֗ן זֶֽה־יָצַ֥רְתָּ לְשַֽׂחֶק־בֹּֽו׃ [26]There go the ships; and this dragon whom thou hast made to play in it.
[27]כֻּ֭לָּם אֵלֶ֣יךָ יְשַׂבֵּר֑וּן לָתֵ֖ת אָכְלָ֣ם בְּעִתֹּֽו׃ [27]All wait upon thee, to give them their food in due season.
[28]תִּתֵּ֣ן לָ֭הֶם יִלְקֹט֑וּן תִּפְתַּ֥ח יָֽ֝דְךָ֗ יִשְׂבְּע֥וּן טֹֽוב׃ [28]When thou hast given it them, they will gather it; and when thou hast opened thine hand, they shall all be filled with good.
[29]תַּסְתִּ֥יר פָּנֶיךָ֮ יִֽבָּהֵ֫ל֥וּן תֹּסֵ֣ף ר֭וּחָם יִגְוָע֑וּן וְֽאֶל־עֲפָרָ֥ם יְשׁוּבֽוּן׃ [29]But when thou hast turned away thy face, they shall be troubled: thou wilt take away their breath, and they shall fail, and return to their dust.
[30]תְּשַׁלַּ֣ח ר֭וּחֲךָ יִבָּרֵא֑וּן וּ֝תְחַדֵּ֗שׁ פְּנֵ֣י אֲדָמָֽה׃ [30]Thou shalt send forth thy Spirit, and they shall be created; and thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
[31]יְהִ֤י כְבֹ֣וד יְהוָ֣ה לְעֹולָ֑ם יִשְׂמַ֖ח יְהוָ֣ה בְּמַעֲשָֽׂיו׃ [31]Let the glory of the Lord be for ever: the Lord shall rejoice in his works;
[32]הַמַּבִּ֣יט לָ֭אָרֶץ וַתִּרְעָ֑ד יִגַּ֖ע בֶּהָרִ֣ים וְֽיֶעֱשָֽׁנוּ׃ [32]who looks upon the earth, and makes it tremble; who touches the mountains, and they smoke.
[33]אָשִׁ֣ירָה לַיהוָ֣ה בְּחַיָּ֑י אֲזַמְּרָ֖ה לֵאלֹהַ֣י בְּעֹודִֽי׃ [33]I will sing to the Lord while I live; I will sing praise to my God while I exist.
[34]יֶעֱרַ֣ב עָלָ֣יו שִׂיחִ֑י אָ֝נֹכִ֗י אֶשְׂמַ֥ח בַּיהוָֽה׃ [34]Let my meditation be sweet to him: and I will rejoice in the Lord.
[35]יִתַּ֤מּוּ חַטָּאִ֨ים ׀ מִן־הָאָ֡רֶץ וּרְשָׁעִ֤ים ׀ עֹ֤וד אֵינָ֗ם בָּרֲכִ֣י נַ֭פְשִׁי אֶת־יְהוָ֗ה הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ [35]Let the sinners fail from off the earth, and transgressors, so that they shall be no more. Bless the Lord, O my soul.
