Ps 104:1
104:1 Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very
      great; thou art {a} clothed with honour and majesty.

      (a) The prophet shows that we do not need to enter into
          the heavens to seek God, for as much as all the order
          of nature, with the propriety and placing of the
          elements, are living mirrors to see his majesty in.

Ps 104:4
104:4 Who {b} maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming
      fire:

      (b) As the prophet here shows that all visible powers are
          ready to serve God: so in He 1:7 the angels
          also, are obedient to his commandment.

Ps 104:6
104:6 Thou coveredst it with the {c} deep as [with] a garment:
      the {d} waters stood above the mountains.

      (c) You make the sea to be an ornament to the earth.
      (d) If by your power you did not bridle the rage of the
          waters, the whole world would be destroyed.

Ps 104:11
104:11 They give drink to every {e} beast of the field: the wild
       asses quench their thirst.

       (e) If God provides for the beasts, much more will he
           extend his provident care to man.

Ps 104:12
104:12 By {f} them shall the fowls of the heaven have their
       habitation, [which] sing among the branches.

       (f) There is no part of the world so barren where most
           evident signs of God's blessing do not appear.

Ps 104:13
104:13 He watereth the hills from his {g} chambers: the earth is
       satisfied with the fruit of thy works.

       (g) From the clouds.

Ps 104:14
104:14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for
       the service of {h} man: that he may bring forth food out
       of the earth;

       (h) He describes God's providential care over man, who
           not only provides necessary things for him such as
           herbs and other meat: but also things to rejoice and
           comfort him such as wine and oil or ointments.

Ps 104:19
104:19 He appointed {i} the moon for seasons: {k} the sun
       knoweth his going down.

       (i) As to separate the night from the day, and to note
           days, months and years.
       (k) That is, by his course, either far or near, it notes
           summer, winter and other seasons.

Ps 104:21
104:21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their
       meat {l} from God.

       {l} That is, they only find meat according to God's
           providence, who cares even for the brute beasts.

Ps 104:23
104:23 {m} Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until
       the evening.

       (m) That is, when the day springs for the light is as it
           were a shield to defend man against the tyranny and
           fierceness of beasts.

Ps 104:24
104:24 O LORD, how {n} manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast
       thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.

       (n) He confesses that no tongue is able to express God's
           works nor mind to comprehend them.

Ps 104:27
104:27 {o} These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give
       [them] their meat in due season.

       (o) God is a nourishing father, who provides for all
           creatures their daily foods.

Ps 104:29
104:29 Thou {p} hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest
       away their breath, they die, and return to their dust.

       (p) As by your presence all things have life; so if you
           withdraw your blessings they all perish.

Ps 104:30
104:30 Thou {q} sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and
       thou renewest the face of the earth.

       (q) As the death of creatures shows that we are nothing
           of ourselves: so their generation declares that we
           receive all things from our Creator.

Ps 104:32
104:32 He looketh on the earth, and it trembleth: he toucheth
       the hills, and they {r} smoke.

       (r) God's merciful face gives strength to the earth, but
           his severe countenance burns the mountains.

Ps 104:35
104:35 Let the sinners be {s} consumed out of the earth, and let
       the wicked be no more. Bless thou the LORD, O my soul.
       Praise ye the LORD.

       (s) Who infect the world, and so cause it to be that God
           cannot rejoice in his work.
