Psalm 104:1-5

O Lord My God, You Are Very Great

¹ _l Bless the Lord, O my soul!
O Lord my God, you are _m very great!
_n You are clothed with splendor and majesty,
² covering yourself with light as with a garment,
_o stretching out the heavens _p like a tent.
³ He _q lays the beams of his _r chambers on the waters;
he makes _s the clouds his chariot;
he rides on _t the wings of the wind;
⁴ he _u makes his messengers winds,
his _v ministers _w a flaming fire.

⁵ He _x set the earth on its foundations,
so that it should never be moved.
