I give praise to Yahweh with all my life, Yahweh my God, you are very magnificent; you are clothed with splendor and majesty.

You cover yourself with light as with a garment; you spread out the heavens like a tent curtain.

You lay the beams of your chambers on the clouds; you make the clouds your chariot; you walk on the wings of the wind.

He makes the winds his messengers, flames of fire his servants.

Your rebuke made the waters recede; at the sound of your thunderous voice they fled.

The mountains rose, and the valleys spread out into the places that you had appointed for them.

He made springs flow into the valleys; the streams flow between the mountains.
11 Taw ah kaom moinawk boih hanah na naeksak; taw ih hrangnawk tui anghae na dipsak.
They supply water for all the animals of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

By the riverbanks the birds build their nests; they sing among the branches.
13 A ohhaih ranui ih im hoiah maenawk to tui a bawh; long loe na toksakhaih atho hoiah zok amhah boeh.
He waters the mountains from his water chambers in the sky. The earth is filled with the fruit of his labor.

He makes the grass grow for the cattle and plants for man to cultivate so that man may produce food from the earth.

The trees of Yahweh get plenty of rain; the cedars of Lebanon which he planted.
17 tavaanawk tabu boh o; tahnong kapaw tuilawnnawk loe far thingnawk nuiah tabu boh o.
There the birds make their nests. The stork makes the cypress tree her home.
18 Maesangnawk to saza hoi satharnawk prathaih ahmuen ah a suek; cathaengnawk loe savehnawk ohhaih ahmuen ah a suek pae.
The wild goats live on the high mountains; the mountain heights are a refuge for the hyraxes.

Yahweh, how many and varied are your works! With wisdom you made them all; the earth overflows with your works.
