Psalms 104

Psalms 104:1-17 -


Today I have not received a message to send thus I did not. But I am sending something unique. It is my notes for a session which is a minimum 3 hours teaching. This Psalm is like a gold mine and I was just amazed with it so much that it came in my heart to share it with you all (I have never done this before sharing my teaching notes).

I have noted verses 1-17 of the Psalm as given in KJV-AV translation and then listed below the same but replaced the words with its Hebrew meaning / root words / what they symbolized. The details is too big to post so like Jesus said at times after His parables, 'those who have wisdom let him understand' (I surely will share part by part over a long period in my posts).

Psalms 104:1-17
1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty.
2 Who coverest with light as a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
3 Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
4 Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
5 Laid the foundations of the earth, it should not be removed for ever.
6 Thou coveredst it with the deep as a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.
7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.
8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them.
9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.
10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys, run among the hills.
11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench their thirst.
12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, sing among the branches.
13 He watereth the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.
14 He 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;
15 And wine maketh glad the heart of man, oil to make face to shine, and bread strengtheneth man's heart.
16 The trees of the LORD are full; the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
17 Where the birds make their nests: the stork, the fir trees are her house.


1 Bless the LORD, O my [life / creature]. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with [glory] and majesty.
2 Who coverest with [plans / vision] as with a [raiment]< 08008>: who stretchest out the [lofty] like a [grieve]:
3 Who layeth the [happening] of his [dwelling place] in the [understanding]: who maketh [glory] his [progress]: who [liveth] upon the [edges] of [time]:
4 Who maketh his [messenger, representative] [sweet scent]; his [servants] a [instruments for rapid purification]:
5 Laid the foundations of the [nations], it should not be removed for ever.
6 Thou coveredst it with [abyss < root word> murmur] as [put on] <03830>: the [corrupt understanding] stood above the [Truth].
7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy [roar] they hasted away.
8 They [ascend] the [Truth]; they [descend] by the [divide / become pieces] unto the place which thou hast [appointed] for them.
9 Thou hast set a [limit] that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the [nations].
10 He sendeth the [well < root word> eye/sight] into the [inheritance], [come] among the [Truth].
11 They [irrigate /cause to drink] to every [living being] [< root word> spread out - all existing]: the [< root word> fruitful] quench their thirst.
12 By them shall the [flying creatures] of the heaven have their habitation, which [deliver] among the branches.
(legs in Hebrew < root word> to bow / subdue and wings < root word> to be extreme)
13 He [irrigate /cause to drink] the [Truth] from his [< root word> ascend]: the [nation] is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.
14 He causeth the [wild grass unbelievers] to grow for the [< root word> mute], and [small medicine plants < root word> to be green] for the service of man: that he may [< root word> overcome] out of the [nations];
15 And [< root word> effervesce] maketh glad the [inner man] of man, [olive oil testimony] to make face to shine, and [< root word> overcome] [sustain] [mortal man's < root word> desperate] [inner man].
16 The [timber < root word> shut] of the LORD are [plenty] ; the [< root word> firmness] of [whiteness righteousness], which he hath [fastened];
17 Where the [< root word> depart early / early ones elect] make their nests: [< root word> holy ones / saints], the [< root word> noble ones] are [family].
