24 The sun rises and they are gone ♦︎
to lay themselves down in their dens.
25 People go forth to their work ♦︎
and to their labour until the evening.
26 O Lord, how manifold are your works! ♦︎
In wisdom you have made them all;
the earth is full of your creatures.
27 There is the sea, spread far and wide, ♦︎
and there move creatures beyond number, both small and great.
28 There go the ships, and there is that Leviathan ♦︎
which you have made to play in the deep.
29 All of these look to you ♦︎
to give them their food in due season.
30 When you give it them, they gather it; ♦︎
you open your hand and they are filled with good.
31 When you hide your face they are troubled; ♦︎
when you take away their breath,
they die and return again to the dust.
32 When you send forth your spirit, they are created, ♦︎
and you renew the face of the earth.
33 May the glory of the Lord endure for ever; ♦︎
may the Lord rejoice in his works;
34 He looks on the earth and it trembles; ♦︎
he touches the mountains and they smoke.
35 I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; ♦︎
I will make music to my God while I have my being.
