Psalm 104 (WEBP)

[1] Bless Yahweh, my soul. Yahweh, my God, you are very great. You are clothed with honor and majesty.
[2] He covers himself with light as with a garment. He stretches out the heavens like a curtain.
[3] He lays the beams of his rooms in the waters. He makes the clouds his chariot. He walks on the wings of the wind.
[4] He makes his messengers winds, and his servants flames of fire.
[5] He laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be moved forever.
[6] You covered it with the deep as with a cloak. The waters stood above the mountains.
[7] At your rebuke they fled. At the voice of your thunder they hurried away.
[8] The mountains rose, the valleys sank down, to the place which you had assigned to them.
[9] You have set a boundary that they may not pass over, that they don’t turn again to cover the earth.
[10] He sends springs into the valleys. They run among the mountains.
[11] They give drink to every animal of the field. The wild donkeys quench their thirst.
[12] The birds of the sky nest by them. They sing among the branches.
[13] He waters the mountains from his rooms. The earth is filled with the fruit of your works.
[14] He causes the grass to grow for the livestock, and plants for man to cultivate, that he may produce food out of the earth:
[15] wine that makes the heart of man glad, oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man’s heart.
[16] Yahweh’s trees are well watered, the cedars of Lebanon, which he has planted,
[17] where the birds make their nests. The stork makes its home in the cypress trees.
[18] The high mountains are for the wild goats. The rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.
[19] He appointed the moon for seasons. The sun knows when to set.
[20] You make darkness, and it is night, in which all the animals of the forest prowl.
[21] The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God.
[22] The sun rises, and they steal away, and lie down in their dens.
[23] Man goes out to his work, to his labor until the evening.
[24] Yahweh, how many are your works! In wisdom, you have made them all. The earth is full of your riches.
[25] There is the sea, great and wide, in which are innumerable living things, both small and large animals.
[26] There the ships go, and leviathan, whom you formed to play there.
[27] These all wait for you, that you may give them their food in due season.
[28] You give to them; they gather. You open your hand; they are satisfied with good.
[29] You hide your face; they are troubled. You take away their breath; they die and return to the dust.
[30] You send out your Spirit and they are created. You renew the face of the ground.
[31] Let Yahweh’s glory endure forever. Let Yahweh rejoice in his works.
[32] He looks at the earth, and it trembles. He touches the mountains, and they smoke.
[33] I will sing to Yahweh as long as I live. I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.
[34] Let my meditation be sweet to him. I will rejoice in Yahweh.
[35] Let sinners be consumed out of the earth. Let the wicked be no more. Bless Yahweh, my soul. Praise Yah!

Psalm 104 (BYZ)

[1] [103:1] τω δαυιδ ευλογει η ψυχη μου τον κυριον κυριε ο θεος μου εμεγαλυνθης σφοδρα εξομολογησιν και ευπρεπειαν ενεδυσω
[2] [103:2] αναβαλλομενος φως ως ιματιον εκτεινων τον ουρανον ωσει δερριν
[3] [103:3] ο στεγαζων εν υδασιν τα υπερωα αυτου ο τιθεις νεφη την επιβασιν αυτου ο περιπατων επι πτερυγων ανεμων
[4] [103:4] ο ποιων τους αγγελους αυτου πνευματα και τους λειτουργους αυτου πυρ φλεγον
[5] [103:5] εθεμελιωσεν την γην επι την ασφαλειαν αυτης ου κλιθησεται εις τον αιωνα του αιωνος
[6] [103:6] αβυσσος ως ιματιον το περιβολαιον αυτου επι των ορεων στησονται υδατα
[7] [103:7] απο επιτιμησεως σου φευξονται απο φωνης βροντης σου δειλιασουσιν
[8] [103:8] αναβαινουσιν ορη και καταβαινουσιν πεδια εις τοπον ον εθεμελιωσας αυτοις
[9] [103:9] οριον εθου ο ου παρελευσονται ουδε επιστρεψουσιν καλυψαι την γην
[10] [103:10] ο εξαποστελλων πηγας εν φαραγξιν ανα μεσον των ορεων διελευσονται υδατα
[11] [103:11] ποτιουσιν παντα τα θηρια του αγρου προσδεξονται οναγροι εις διψαν αυτων
[12] [103:12] επ αυτα τα πετεινα του ουρανου κατασκηνωσει εκ μεσου των πετρων δωσουσιν φωνην
[13] [103:13] ποτιζων ορη εκ των υπερωων αυτου απο καρπου των εργων σου χορτασθησεται η γη
[14] [103:14] εξανατελλων χορτον τοις κτηνεσιν και χλοην τη δουλεια των ανθρωπων του εξαγαγειν αρτον εκ της γης
[15] [103:15] και οινος ευφραινει καρδιαν ανθρωπου του ιλαρυναι προσωπον εν ελαιω και αρτος καρδιαν ανθρωπου στηριζει
[16] [103:16] χορτασθησεται τα ξυλα του πεδιου αι κεδροι του λιβανου ας εφυτευσεν
[17] [103:17] εκει στρουθια εννοσσευσουσιν του ερωδιου η οικια ηγειται αυτων
[18] [103:18] ορη τα υψηλα ταις ελαφοις πετρα καταφυγη τοις χοιρογρυλλιοις
[19] [103:19] εποιησεν σεληνην εις καιρους ο ηλιος εγνω την δυσιν αυτου
[20] [103:20] εθου σκοτος και εγενετο νυξ εν αυτη διελευσονται παντα τα θηρια του δρυμου
[21] [103:21] σκυμνοι ωρυομενοι αρπασαι και ζητησαι παρα του θεου βρωσιν αυτοις
[22] [103:22] ανετειλεν ο ηλιος και συνηχθησαν και εν ταις μανδραις αυτων κοιτασθησονται
[23] [103:23] εξελευσεται ανθρωπος επι το εργον αυτου και επι την εργασιαν αυτου εως εσπερας
[24] [103:24] ως εμεγαλυνθη τα εργα σου κυριε παντα εν σοφια εποιησας επληρωθη η γη της κτησεως σου
[25] [103:25] αυτη η θαλασσα η μεγαλη και ευρυχωρος εκει ερπετα ων ουκ εστιν αριθμος ζωα μικρα μετα μεγαλων
[26] [103:26] εκει πλοια διαπορευονται δρακων ουτος ον επλασας εμπαιζειν αυτω
[27] [103:27] παντα προς σε προσδοκωσιν δουναι την τροφην αυτοις ευκαιρον
[28] [103:28] δοντος σου αυτοις συλλεξουσιν ανοιξαντος δε σου την χειρα τα συμπαντα πλησθησονται χρηστοτητος
[29] [103:29] αποστρεψαντος δε σου το προσωπον ταραχθησονται αντανελεις το πνευμα αυτων και εκλειψουσιν και εις τον χουν αυτων επιστρεψουσιν
[30] [103:30] εξαποστελεις το πνευμα σου και κτισθησονται και ανακαινιεις το προσωπον της γης
[31] [103:31] ητω η δοξα κυριου εις τον αιωνα ευφρανθησεται κυριος επι τοις εργοις αυτου
[32] [103:32] ο επιβλεπων επι την γην και ποιων αυτην τρεμειν ο απτομενος των ορεων και καπνιζονται
[33] [103:33] ασω τω κυριω εν τη ζωη μου ψαλω τω θεω μου εως υπαρχω
[34] [103:34] ηδυνθειη αυτω η διαλογη μου εγω δε ευφρανθησομαι επι τω κυριω
[35] [103:35] εκλιποισαν αμαρτωλοι απο της γης και ανομοι ωστε μη υπαρχειν αυτους ευλογει η ψυχη μου τον κυριον
