'0 Lord my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty. 'Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment; who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain. 'Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters; who maketh the clouds his chariot; who walketh upon the wings of the wind. 'Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire; who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. 'Thou coveredst the deep as with a garment; the waters stood above the mountains. 'At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away. 'They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them. 'Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth. 'He sendeth the springs into the valleys, which run among the hills. 'They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench their thirst. |
