1. To David himself. Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, you are exceedingly great. You have clothed yourself with confession and beauty;
2. you are dressed with light like a garment, while you stretch out heaven like a tent.
3. You cover its heights with water. You set the clouds as your stairs. You walk upon the wings of the winds.
4. You make your Angels a breath of life, and your ministers a burning fire.
5. You founded the earth upon its stable base. It will not be bent from age to age.
6. The abyss, like a garment, is its clothing. The waters will remain standing above the mountains.
7. At your rebuke, they will flee. At the voice of your thunder, they will dread.
