Psalms 104:7-18

7At your rebuke the water fled; at the sound of your thunder they hurried away  —

8mountains rose and valleys sank  — to the place you established for them.

9You set a boundary they cannot cross; they will never cover the earth again.

10He causes the springs to gush into the valleys; they flow between the mountains.

11They supply water for every wild beast; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

12The birds of the sky live beside the springs; they make their voices heard among the foliage.

13He waters the mountains from his palace; the earth is satisfied by the fruit of your labor.

14He causes grass to grow for the livestock and provides crops for man to cultivate, producing food from the earth,

15wine that makes human hearts glad — making his face shine with oil — and bread that sustains human hearts.

16The trees of the Lord flourish, the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.

17There the birds make their nests; storks make their homes in the pine trees.

18The high mountains are for the wild goats; the cliffs are a refuge for hyraxes.
