v.24
O YHVH, how manifold (many-faceted, many-sided -- my re-wording) are Thy Works!
(works: things YHVH God has made, in His Creation)
in Wisdom hast Thou made them all:
the earth is full of Thy Riches.
v.25
So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts. (beasts: animals, birds, fishes, insects, anything that moves and is not a plant; creatures God has made are called beasts in His Word.)
v.31
The Glory of YHVH shall endure for ever: YHVH shall rejoice in His Works.

v.1
Bless YHVH, O my soul. O YHVH, my Elohim, Thou art very great; Thou art clothed with honour and majesty. (Amen!) (HalleluYah!)
v.2
Who coverest Thyself with Light as with a garment: Who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
v.3
Who layeth the beams of His Chambers (rooms) in the waters: Who maketh the clouds His Chariot: Who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
v.5
Who laid the foundations of the earth, (that) it should not be removed for ever.
v.10
He sendeth the springs into the valleys, (which) run among the hills.
v.11
They give drink to every beast (animal; creature) of the field: the wild asses (a group of animals which includes donkeys) quench (break, in Hebrew) their thirst.
v.12
By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, (which) sing among the branches.
v.13
He watereth the hills from His Chambers (rooms where He stores water): the earth is satisifed with the fruit of Thy Works.
v.14
He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb (plant[s]) for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth;
v.15
And wine (slightly fermented grape juice) that maketh glad the heart of man (juice from grapes is good for the heart muscle, as well as for digestion or stomach troubles), and oil (olive, usually) to make (his; man's) face to shine, and bread (which) strengtheneth man's heart.
