24 Lord, how (A)many are Your works!
[a]In (B)wisdom You have made them all;
The (C)earth is full of Your [b]possessions.
25 [c]There is the (D)sea, great and [d]broad,
In which are swarms without number,
Animals both small and great.
26 The (E)ships move along there,
And [e](F)Leviathan, which You have formed to have fun in it.

27 They all (G)wait for You
To (H)give them their food in [f]due season.
28 You give to them, they gather it up;
You (I)open Your hand, they are satisfied with good.
29 You (J)hide Your face, they are terrified;
You (K)take away their breath, they perish
And (L)return to their dust.
30 You send forth Your [g](M)Spirit, they are created;
And You renew the face of the ground.

31 May the (N)glory of the Lord endure forever;
May the Lord (O)rejoice in His works;
32 [h]He (P)looks at the earth, and it (Q)trembles;
He (R)touches the mountains, and they smoke.
33 [i]I will sing to the Lord [j](S)as long as I live;
[k]I will (T)sing praise to my God [l]while I have my being.
34 May my (U)praise be pleasing to Him;
As for me, I shall (V)rejoice in the Lord.
35 May sinners be (W)removed from the earth
And may the (X)wicked be no more.
(Y)Bless the Lord, my soul.
[m](Z)Praise [n]the Lord!
