Psalms 104
- 1 Bless Jehovah, O my soul. O Jehovah my God, thou art very great; Thou art clothed with honor and majesty:
- 2 Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment; Who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain;
- 3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters; Who maketh the clouds his chariot; Who walketh upon the wings of the wind;
- 4 Who maketh winds his messengers; Flames of fire his ministers;
- 5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, That it should not be moved for ever.
- 6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a vesture; The waters stood above the mountains.
- 7 At thy rebuke they fled; At the voice of thy thunder they hasted away
- 8 (The mountains rose, the valleys sank down) Unto the place which thou hadst founded for them.
- 9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; That they turn not again to cover the earth.
- 10 He sendeth forth springs into the valleys; They run among the mountains;
- 11 They give drink to every beast of the field; The wild asses quench their thirst.
- 12 By them the birds of the heavens have their habitation; They sing among the branches.
- 13 He watereth the mountains from his chambers: The earth is filled with the fruit of thy works.
- 14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, And herb for the service of man; That he may bring forth food out of the earth,
- 15 And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, Andoil to make his face to shine, And bread that strengtheneth man’s heart.
- 16 The trees of Jehovah are filledwith moisture, The cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
- 17 Where the birds make their nests: As for the stork, the fir-trees are her house.
- 18 The high mountains are for the wild goats; The rocks are a refuge for the conies.
- 19 He appointed the moon for seasons: The sun knoweth his going down.
- 20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night, Wherein all the beasts of the forest creep forth.
- 21 The young lions roar after their prey, And seek their food from God.
- 22 The sun ariseth, they get them away, And lay them down in their dens.
- 23 Man goeth forth unto his work And to his labor until the evening.
- 24 O Jehovah, how manifold are thy works! In wisdom hast thou made them all: The earth is full of thy riches.
- 25 Yonder is the sea, great and wide, Wherein are things creeping innumerable, Both small and great beasts.
- 26 There go the ships; There is leviathan, whom thou hast formed to play therein.
- 27 These wait all for thee, That thou mayest give them their food in due season.
- 28 Thou givest unto them, they gather; Thou openest thy hand, they are satisfied with good.
- 29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled; Thou takest away their breath, they die, And return to their dust.
- 30 Thou sendest forth thy Spirit, they are created; And thou renewest the face of the ground.
- 31 Let the glory of Jehovah endure for ever; Let Jehovah rejoice in his works:
- 32 Who looketh on the earth, and it trembleth; He toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.
- 33 I will sing unto Jehovah as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.
- 34 Let my meditation be sweet unto him: I will rejoice in Jehovah.
- 35 Let sinners be consumed out of the earth. And let the wicked be no more. Bless Jehovah, O my soul. Praise ye Jehovah.

American Standard Version (asv - 2)
2021-02-18English (en)
The American Standard Version (ASV) of the Holy Bible is in the Public Domain. Please feel free to copy it, give it away, memorize it, publish it, sell it, or whatever God leads you to do with it.
The American Standard Version of 1901 is an Americanization of the English Revised Bible, which is an update of the KJV to less archaic spelling and greater accuracy of translation. It has been called "The Rock of Biblical Honesty." It is the product of the work of over 50 Evangelical Christian scholars.
While the ASV retains many archaic word forms, it is still more understandable to the modern reader than the KJV in many passages. The ASV also forms the basis for several modern English translations, including the World English Bible (http://www.eBible.org/bible/WEB), which is also in the Public Domain. The ASV uses "Jehovah" for Godߴs proper name. While the current consensus is that this Holy Name was more likely pronounced "Yahweh," it is refreshing to see this rendition instead of the overloading of the word "Lord" that the KJV, NASB, and many others do.
Pronouns referring to God are not capitalized in the ASV, as they are not in the NIV and some others, breaking the tradition of the KJV. Since Hebrew has no such thing as tense, and the oldest Greek manuscripts are all upper case, anyway, this tradition was based only on English usage around 1600, anyway. Not capitalizing these pronouns solves some translational problems, such as the coronation psalms, which refer equally well to an earthly king and to God.- Encoding: UTF-8
