Psalm 104:1-35            Book# 4 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks]

Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, You [are] very great. You [are] clothed with [honor] & majesty. Who [covered] Yourself with Light [like] with a garment.

[John 1:9-12 That was the True Light, [Who enlightens] every man, [Who comes] into the world. He was in the world, & the world was made by Him, & the world [didn't] know Him.

*He came unto His own, & His own [didn't receive] Him. But as many as received Him, He gave power to them to become the sons of God, even to [those who] believe [in] His Name.]

Who [stretched] out the heavens like a curtain. [Genesis 1:6-8 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, & let it divide the waters from the waters. And God made the firmament, & divided the waters [that] were under the firmament from the waters [that] were above the firmament; & it was so. And God called the firmament, Heaven.  And the evening & the morning were the 2nd day.]

Who [lays] the beams of His [rooms] in the waters. Who [makes] the clouds His chariot. Who [walks] upon the wings of the wind. [Amos 9:6 It is He, [Who builds] His [stairs to the different] stories in heaven, & [has established] His troop [of followers on] the earth. He, [Who calls] for the waters of the sea, & [pours] them out upon the [surface] of the earth. The Lord is His Name.]

Who [makes] His Angels, Spirits: & His ministers, a flaming fire. [Acts 2:2-4 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven [like] of a rushing, mighty wind. And it filled all the house where they were sitting.

And there appeared to them cloven tongues like as of fire, & it sat upon, [a.k.a. over,] each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, [a.k.a. Holy Spirit,] & began to speak with other tongues, [a.k.a. languages,] as the [Holy] Spirit gave them utterance.]

Who laid the foundations of the earth, [so] that it should not be removed forever. You [covered] it with the deep, [like] with a garment. The waters stood above the mountains.

[Genesis 1:9-10 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, & let the dry land appear: & it was so. And God called the dry land, Earth; & the gathering together of the waters, He called Seas; & God saw that it was good.]

At Your [scolding] [the waters] fled, & at the [sound] of Your thunder, they [hurried] away. They go up by the mountains, & they go down by the valleys [into] the place [that] You [have created] for them. You [have put] a [boundary, so] that they may not pass over, [so] that they [don't return] again to cover the earth.

[Genesis 9:11-13 And I will establish My covenant, [a.k.a. contract,] with You. Neither shall all flesh be cut off anymore by the waters of a flood, & neither shall there be a flood any more to destroy the earth.

And God said, This is the [sign] of the covenant, which I make between Me, & you ,& every living creature that is with you, for [future] generations. I do [put] My [rainbow] in the cloud, & it shall be for a [sign] of a covenant between Me, & the earth.]

He [sends] the springs, [a.k.a. rivers,] into the valleys, which run among the hills. They give drink to every [animal] of the field, & the wild [donkeys] quench their thirst. By [these rivers,] the [birds] of the heaven, which sing among the branches, have their habitation.

He [waters] the hills from His [rooms,] & the earth is satisfied with the fruit of Your works. He [causes] the grass to grow for the cattle, & [the] herb for the service of man, [so] that he may bring forth food out of the earth.

And wine that [makes] the heart of man glad, & oil to make his face shine, & bread [that strengthens] a man's heart. The trees of the Lord are full of sap. He [has] planted the cedars of Lebanon, where the birds make their nests. As for the stork, the fir trees are her house.

The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats & the rocks [are a refuge] for the [rock badgers.] He appointed the moon for seasons, & the sun [knows its] going down. [Genesis 1:14-17 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night. And let them be for: signs, seasons, days, & years. And let them be for light in the firmament of the heaven, to give light upon the earth; & it was so. And God made 2 great, [a.k.a. large,] lights; the [larger] light to rule the day, & the [smaller] light to rule the night. He also made the stars. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth.]

You make darkness, & it is night, [in which] all the [animals] of the forest creep [out.] The young lions roar after their prey, & they seek their meat from God. The sun [arises,] & they gather themselves together, & lay [themselves] down in their dens.

Man [goes out] to his work, [for him] to [labor] until the evening. O Lord, how [many] Your works are! You [have] made them all in wisdom. The earth is full of Your riches. So, is this [immense] & wide sea, [in which] are: [numerous] creeping things, both small & [large creatures.]

[Psalm 40:5 O Lord my God, many are Your wonderful works, which You [have] done, & Your thoughts which are [toward] us, they can't be [calculated] up in order [to give credit] to You. If I would speak of them & declare [them,] they are more than can be [counted.]

The ships go there, [where] Leviathan is, whom You [have] made to play [in there.] [Job 41:1-2 [Can] you draw, [a.k.a. pull,] out Leviathan with a hook? Or his tongue with a cord [that] you [let] down? [Can] you put a hook into his nose? Or bore through his jaw with a thorn?]

All these wait upon You, [so] that You [may] give them their meat, [a.k.a. food,] in due season. They gather [what] You [give] them. You [open] Your hand, & they are filled with good [things.] [Psalm 136:25-26 Who [gives] food to all flesh, for His mercy [endures] forever. O give thanks to the God of heaven, for His mercy [endures] forever.]

You [hide] Your face, & they are troubled. [Isaiah 54:7-8 For a [little] moment, I have [abandoned] you. But I will gather you with great mercies. I hid My face from you for a moment, in a little [anger,] but I will have mercy on you, with everlasting kindness, [says] the Lord your Redeemer.]

You [take] away their breath, & they die, & they return to their dust, [a.k.a. dirt.] Ecclesiastes 3:19-20 For [what befalls, a.k.a. happens,] [to] the sons of men, [happens] [to the] [animals.] Even one thing [happens,] [to] them. [Like] the one [dies, also] the other [dies.] [Yes,] they all have one, [a.k.a. the same,] breath; so that man [has] no [advantage over an animal;] for all is vanity. All go to one place, & all are [made from] the dust, & all [return] to dust again.]

You [sent out] Your [Holy] Spirit, & they are created.  [Genesis 1:224-27 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living [creatures,] after [its] kind: cattle, & creeping [things,] & [animals,] of the earth after [its] kind, & it was so. And God made the [animals] of the earth, after [its] kind, & cattle, [a.k.a. livestock,] after [its] kind, & everything that [creeps] upon the earth, after [its] kind. And God saw that it was good. And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness. And let them have dominion, [a.k.a. authority,] over the fish of the sea, over the [birds] of the air, over the cattle, over all the earth, & over every creeping thing that [creeps] upon the earth. So, God created man in His Own image. In the image of God, He created him. He created them: male & female.]

And You renew the [surface] of the earth. [Isaiah 41:17-20 When the poor & needy seek water, & there is none, & their tongue [fails] for thirst, I, the Lord, will hear them. I, the God of Israel, won't [abandon] them. I will open rivers in high places, & fountains in the [middle] of valleys. I will make the wilderness a pool of water, & the dry lands, springs of water. I will plant the: cedar, [acacia,] myrle, & oil, [a.k.a. olive,] tree in the wilderness. I will [put] the: fir, [a.k.a. cypress,] pine, & box tree together in the desert. [So] that they together may: see, know, consider, & understand, that the hand of the Lord [has] done this, & the Holy One of Israel [has] created it.]

The glory of the Lord shall endure forever. The Lord shall rejoice in His works. [Genesis 1:31 And God saw everything that He had made, & [saw that] it was very good. And the evening, & the morning were the 6th day.]

He [looks upon] the earth, & it [trembles.] He [touches] the hills, & they smoke. [Exodus 19:16-18 And it [happened] on the 3rd day in the morning, that there were thunders & lightnings, & a thick cloud upon the mount, & the [sound] of [an exceedingly] loud trumpet; so that all the people [who were] in the camp trembled.

And Moses brought [forward] the people out of the camp to meet with God. And they stood at the [lower] part of the mount. And Mount Sinai was [totally smoking,] because the Lord [went down] upon it in fire, & [its] smoke [went up like] the smoke of a furnace, & the whole mount greatly quaked.]

I will sing to the Lord as long as I live. I will sing praise to my God, while [I'm alive.] My [thoughts] of Him shall be sweet. I will be glad in the Lord.

Let the sinners be [destroyed] out of the earth, & let the wicked no [longer exist.] [Psalm 37:38-39 But the transgressors shall be destroyed together. The end of the wicked shall be cut off. But the Lord is the Salvation of the righteous. He is their strength in times of trouble.]

You, bless the Lord, O my soul. Praise you the Lord.
