Psalms 104
1 Bless Jehovah, O my soul! Jehovah my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with majesty and splendour;
【讚美造物的大主】我的靈魂請向上主讚頌！上主我的天主，您偉大無限，您以尊貴威嚴作您的衣冠：身披光明，好像外氅，展開蒼天，相似棚帳，
2 Covering thyself with light as with a garment, stretching out the heavens like a tent-curtain; —
在水上建築您的宮殿，造了雲彩，作您的車輦，駕御著風翼，馳騁直前；
3 Who layeth the beams of his upper chambers in the waters, who maketh clouds his chariot, who walketh upon the wings of the wind;
發出暴風，作您的使團，您以火燄，作您的隨員。
4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flame of fire.
您奠定大地於基礎之上，您使大地永遠不再動盪；
5 He laid the earth upon its foundations: it shall not be removed for ever.
以汪洋作氅衣把大地遮蓋，又以大水把群山峻嶺掩埋。
6 Thou hadst covered it with the deep, as with a vesture; the waters stood above the mountains:
您一呵叱，大水即逃避，您一鳴雷，大水即驚退。
7 At thy rebuke they fled, at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away; —
峻嶺血上突出，山谷向下沉落，各個都停在您指定的處所。
8 The mountains rose, the valleys sank, unto the place which thou hadst founded for them; —
您劃定了界限，都不越過，免得大水再把大地淹沒。
9 Thou hast set a bound which they may not pass over, that they turn not again to cover the earth.
您使水泉成為溪川，蜿蜒長流於群山間，
10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys: they run among the mountains;
供給各種走獸水喝，使野驢也得以解渴。
11 They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild asses quench their thirst.
天上飛鳥，在水邊宿臥，在枝葉痋叢中不斸鳴叫。
12 The birds of heaven dwell by them; they give forth their voice from among the branches.
您從高樓宮殿上，灌溉山地，以出產的果實，飽飫普世；
13 He watereth the mountains from his upper-chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.
您使青草和植物生出，餵養牲畜，為給人服務。又使土地產生出五穀，
14 He maketh the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man; bringing forth bread out of the earth,
美酒，人飲了舒暢人神，膏油，人用來塗面潤身，麵餅，人吃了增強人神。
15 And wine which gladdeneth the heart of man; making [his] face shine with oil; and with bread he strengtheneth man's heart.
上主的木喬木飽餐水澤，黎巴嫩香柏，主手所植。
16 The trees of Jehovah are satisfied, the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted,
鳥類在那裏壘窩築巢，鶴群以樹梢為家安臥。
17 Where the birds make their nests; [as for] the stork, the fir trees are her house.
高山崚嶺作羚羊的洞府，絕壁岩石作野兔的居處。
18 The high mountains are for the wild goats; the cliffs, a refuge for the rock-badgers.
您造有月亮以定節季，太陽自知向西沉墜。
19 He made the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth its going down.
您造了黑暗，便有了夜晚，林中的野獸遂四出狂竄。
20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night, wherein all the beasts of the forest creep forth:
少壯的獅子恕吼覓姇，向天主要求食物充饑；
21 The young lions roar after the prey, and to seek their food from God.
太陽升起的時候，牠們各自逃避，回到自己的洞穴，安然臥下休息；
22 The sun ariseth, they retreat, and lay them down in their dens.
於是人們出外謀生，各去勞動，直到黃昏。
23 Man goeth forth unto his work, and to his labour until the evening.
上主，您的化工，何其浩繁，全是您以智慧所創辦，您的受造物遍地充滿。
24 How manifold are thy works, O Jehovah! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.
看，汪洋大海，一望無際，其中水族，不可計數，大小生物，浮游不息。
25 Yonder is the great and wide sea: therein are moving things innumerable, living creatures small and great.
在那裏有舟有船，往來航行，還有您造的鱷魚，遊戲其中。
26 There go the ships; [there] that leviathan, which thou hast formed to play therein.
這一切生物都瞻仰著您，希望您按時給它們飲食。
27 These all look unto thee, that thou mayest give their food in its season:
您一賜給它們，它們便會收集，您一伸您的手，它們便得飽食。
28 That thou givest unto them, they gather; thou openest thy hand, they are filled with good.
您若隱藏您的面容，它們便要恐懼，您若停止它們的呼吸，它們就要死去，再回
29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled; thou takest away their breath, they expire and return to their dust.
到它們由灰土出來的那裏去。
30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created, and thou renewest the face of the earth.
您一嚧氣萬物創成，您使地面，更新復興。
31 The glory of Jehovah will endure for ever; Jehovah will rejoice in his works.
願上主的光榮，永世無窮；願上主喜樂，自己的化工！
32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth; he toucheth the mountains, and they smoke.
祂一垂視大地，大地抖顫；祂一觸摸群山，群山冒煙。
33 I will sing unto Jehovah as long as I live; I will sing psalms to my God while I have my being.
只要我活著，我要歌頌上主，只要我存在．我要詠讚上主。
34 My meditation shall be pleasant unto him; I will rejoice in Jehovah.
願我的頌詞使祂樂意，我要常在上主內歡喜。
35 Sinners shall be consumed out of the earth, and the wicked shall be no more. Bless Jehovah, O my soul. Hallelujah!
願罪人由地面上滅跡，惡人不再存留於人世！我的靈魂，頌讚上主！阿肋路亞。
