He makes His angels spirits, His ministers a flaming fire. He laid the earth on its foundations; it shall not be shaken forever. You covered the deep as with a robe; the waters stand above the mountains. At Your rebuke they flee; at the voice of Your thunder they hurry away. They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys to the place which You have founded for them. You have set a bound that they may not pass over, so that they do not turn again to cover the earth. He sends the springs into the valleys; they flow between the hills.

In wisdom You have made them all; the earth is full of Your riches. This is the great and wide sea, in which are creeping things without number, both small and great animals. There the ships go; You made this great sea animal to play in it. These all wait on You, that You may give them their food in due season. You give to them, they gather; You open Your hand; they are filled with good. You hide Your face, they are troubled; You take away their breath, they die and return to their dust. You send forth Your Spirit, they are created; and You renew the face of the earth. The glory of Jehovah shall endure forever; Jehovah shall rejoice in His works. He looks on the earth, and it trembles; He touches the hills, and they smoke. I will sing to Jehovah as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being. My thoughts of Him shall be sweet; I will be glad in Jehovah. Let the sinners perish from the earth, and let the wicked be no more. Bless Jehovah, O my soul. Praise Jehovah!
