²Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
³Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
⁴Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
⁵Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.

¹⁴He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;

²⁷These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give them their meat in due season.
²⁸That thou givest them they gather: thou openest thine hand, they are filled with good.
²⁹Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.
