Liturgy sur La Genèse 1:21

How many are Your works, Adonoy! You made them all with wisdom; the earth is full of Your possessions! This sea, great and wide— therein are innumerable creeping things, animals small and great. There ships travel; this Leviathan⁹According to tradition, God created the Leviathan with a mate but slew her in order that they not reproduce. Because of their tremendous size, they would have brought much destruction to the world (See Rashi in Genesis 1:21).—Rashi You formed to frolic with. They all look to You expectantly, to provide their food in its time. [When] You give it to them, they gather it in; [when] You open Your hand, they are sated with goodness. Whey You hide Your face,¹⁰When God withdraws His sustaining power from any creature or being, it perishes. they are panic-stricken; When You gather in their breath, they perish, and to their dust they return. When You send Your spirit,¹¹This refers to the era when God will restore life to the dead.—Rashi they will be created [anew]; and You will renew the face of the earth.
