The LORD'S Care over All His Works.

O LORD my God, You are very great;

Stretching out heaven like a tent curtain.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:3 - [fn]He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters;

So that it will not [fn]totter forever and ever.

They flow between the mountains;
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:11 - They give drink to every beast of the field;
The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

They [fn]lift up their voices among the branches.

The earth is satisfied with the fruit of His works.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:14 - [fn]He causes the grass to grow for the [fn]cattle,
And vegetation for the [fn]labor of man,
So that [fn]he may bring forth [fn]food from the earth,

So that he may make his face glisten with oil,
And [fn]food which sustains man’s heart.

The cedars of Lebanon which He planted,

In which all the beasts of the forest [fn]prowl about.

And to his labor until evening.

[fn]In wisdom You have made them all;
The earth is full of Your [fn]possessions.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:25 - [fn]There is the sea, great and [fn]broad,
In which are swarms without number,
Animals both small and great.

And [fn]Leviathan, which You have formed to sport in it.

To give them their food in [fn]due season.

You take away their [fn]spirit, they expire
And return to their dust.

And You renew the face of the ground.
