Footnotes
- Psalm 104:35 Before concluding, the psalmist prays that sin may disappear from creation. However, because the hymn cannot end with a malediction (see Ps 139:19), he repeats the words of verse 1 as a refrain: “Bless the Lord, O my soul.” Alleluia: i.e., “Hallelujah” or “Bless [or praise] the Lord,” which most likely belongs to the beginning of Ps 105 (see Pss 105:45; 106:1, 48).
