²⁴ How many are your works,^(A) Lord!
    In wisdom you made^(B) them all;
    the earth is full of your creatures.^(C)
25 There is the sea,^(D) vast and spacious,
    teeming with creatures beyond number—
    living things both large and small.^(E)
26 There the ships^(F) go to and fro,
    and Leviathan,^(G) which you formed to frolic^(H) there.^(I)

²⁷ All creatures look to you
    to give them their food^(J) at the proper time.
²⁸ When you give it to them,
    they gather it up;
when you open your hand,
    they are satisfied^(K) with good things.
²⁹ When you hide your face,^(L)
    they are terrified;
when you take away their breath,
    they die and return to the dust.^(M)
30 When you send your Spirit,^(N)
    they are created,
    and you renew the face of the ground.

³¹ May the glory of the Lord^(O) endure forever;
    may the Lord rejoice in his works^(P)—
³² he who looks at the earth, and it trembles,^(Q)
    who touches the mountains,^(R) and they smoke.^(S)

³³ I will sing^(T) to the Lord all my life;
    I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.
³⁴ May my meditation be pleasing to him,
    as I rejoice^(U) in the Lord.

³⁵ But may sinners vanish^(A) from the earth
    and the wicked be no more.^(B)

Praise the Lord, my soul.

Praise the Lord.^[a](C)

“I am sending you grain, new wine^(C) and olive oil,^(D)
    enough to satisfy you fully;^(E)
never again will I make you
    an object of scorn^(F) to the nations.

²⁰ “I will drive the northern horde^(G) far from you,
    pushing it into a parched and barren land;
its eastern ranks will drown in the Dead Sea
    and its western ranks in the Mediterranean Sea.
And its stench^(H) will go up;
    its smell will rise.”

Surely he has done great things!
²¹     Do not be afraid,^(I) land of Judah;
    be glad and rejoice.^(J)
Surely the Lord has done great things!^(K)
22     Do not be afraid, you wild animals,
    for the pastures in the wilderness are becoming green.^(L)
The trees are bearing their fruit;
    the fig tree^(M) and the vine^(N) yield their riches.^(O)
23 Be glad, people of Zion,
    rejoice^(P) in the Lord your God,
for he has given you the autumn rains
    because he is faithful.^(Q)
He sends you abundant showers,^(R)
    both autumn^(S) and spring rains,^(T) as before.
²⁴ The threshing floors will be filled with grain;
    the vats will overflow^(U) with new wine^(V) and oil.

²⁵ “I will repay you for the years the locusts^(W) have eaten^(X)—
    the great locust and the young locust,
    the other locusts and the locust swarm^[b]—
my great army^(Y) that I sent among you.
²⁶ You will have plenty to eat, until you are full,^(Z)
    and you will praise^(AA) the name of the Lord your God,
    who has worked wonders^(AB) for you;
never again will my people be shamed.^(AC)
27 Then you will know^(AD) that I am in Israel,
    that I am the Lord^(AE) your God,
    and that there is no other;
never again will my people be shamed.^(AF)
