    Translated as angels:

    Psalm 104:4
    King James Version (KJV)

    4Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:

    Translated as messengers:

    Psalm 104:4
    Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

    4Making His messengers — the winds, His ministers — the flaming fire.

    In context:

    Psalm 104
    King James Version (KJV)

    1Bless the LORD, O my soul. O LORD my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honour and majesty.
    2Who coverest thyself with light as with a garment: who stretchest out the heavens like a curtain:
    3Who layeth the beams of his chambers in the waters: who maketh the clouds his chariot: who walketh upon the wings of the wind:
    4Who maketh his angels spirits; his ministers a flaming fire:
    5Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever.
    6Thou coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the mountains.
    7At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away.

    Literal translation in context:

    Psalm 104
    Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

    1Bless, O my soul, Jehovah! Jehovah, my God, Thou hast been very great, Honour and majesty Thou hast put on.
    2Covering himself [with] light as a garment, Stretching out the heavens as a curtain,
    3Who is laying the beam of His upper chambers in the waters, Who is making thick clouds His chariot, Who is walking on wings of wind,
    4Making His messengers — the winds, His ministers — the flaming fire.
    5He hath founded earth on its bases, It is not moved to the age and for ever.
    6The abyss! as with clothing Thou hast covered it, Above hills do waters stand.
    7From Thy rebuke they flee, From the voice of Thy thunder haste away.

    The context is speaking of natural items serving God such as “making thick clouds His chariot'.

    Hi KW,
    His angels are the seven spirits in front of His throne.

    Nick,

    There are said to be seven archangels that are called the eyes of God. I am not sure if it has anything to do with my question about Psalms 104:4
