1  ^lBless the Lord, O my soul!

O Lord my God, you are ^mvery great!

ⁿYou are clothed with splendor and majesty,

2  covering yourself with light as with a garment,

^ostretching out the heavens ^plike a tent.

3  He ^qlays the beams of his ^rchambers on the waters;

he makes ^sthe clouds his chariot;

he rides on ^tthe wings of the wind;

4  he ^umakes his messengers winds,

his ^vministers ^wa flaming fire.

5  He ^xset the earth on its foundations,

so that it should never be moved.

6  You ^ycovered it with the deep as with a garment;

the waters stood above the mountains.

7  At ^zyour rebuke they fled;

at ^athe sound of your thunder they ^btook to flight.

8  The mountains rose, the valleys sank down

to the place that you ^cappointed for them.

9  You set ^da boundary that they may not pass,

so that they ^emight not again cover the earth.
