John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Psalms 104:32

He looketh — This is a farther illustration of God's powerful providence: as when he affords his favour to creatures, they live and thrive, so on the contrary, one angry look or touch of his upon the hills or earth, makes them tremble and smoke, as Sinai did when God appeared in it.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Psalms 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.
