Psalm 104

Bless the Lord, Who Creates Wonders

Introduction

Bless the Lord, O my soul.

O Lord my God, you are very great.
You are clothed with splendor and majesty.

Day One—Light

He wears light like a robe.

Day Two—the Sky

He stretches out the heavens like a canopy.
He lays beams on the waters to support his upper chambers.
He makes clouds his chariot.
He travels on the wings of the wind.
He makes his messengers[a] winds.
His ministers are blazing fire.

Day Three—the Waters and Plants

He placed the earth firmly on its foundations.
It cannot be moved forever and ever.
You covered it with the deep as a garment.
The waters stood above the mountains.
At your rebuke they fled.
At the sound of your thunder they hurried away.
The waters surged up the mountains.
They went down into the valleys,[b]
to the place that you prepared for them.
You set a boundary that they cannot cross.
They will not return to cover the earth.
