Psalm 104:21-35

English Standard Version

²⁴ O Lord, how manifold are your works!
    In ^(D)wisdom have you made them all;
    the earth is full of your creatures.
²⁵ Here is the sea, great and wide,
    ^(E)which teems with creatures innumerable,
    living things both small and great.
²⁶ There go the ships,
    and ^(F)Leviathan, which you formed to ^(G)play in it.^[a]

²⁷ These ^(H)all look to you,
    to ^(I)give them their food in due season.
²⁸ When you give it to them, they gather it up;
    when you ^(J)open your hand, they are filled with good things.
²⁹ When you ^(K)hide your face, they are ^(L)dismayed;
    when you ^(M)take away their breath, they die
    and ^(N)return to their dust.
³⁰ When you ^(O)send forth your Spirit,^[b] they are created,
    and you ^(P)renew the face of the ground.

³¹ May the glory of the Lord ^(Q)endure forever;
    may the Lord ^(R)rejoice in his works,
³² who looks on the earth and it ^(S)trembles,
    who ^(T)touches the mountains and they smoke!
³³ I will sing to the Lord ^(U)as long as I live;
    I will sing praise to my God while I have being.
³⁴ May my ^(V)meditation be pleasing to him,
    for I rejoice in the Lord.
³⁵ Let ^(W)sinners be consumed from the earth,
    and let the wicked be no more!
^(X)Bless the Lord, O my soul!
^(Y)Praise the Lord!
