Psalms 104:6-26

6Thou hadst covered it with the deep, as with a vesture; the waters stood above the mountains:7At thy rebuke they fled, at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away; —8The mountains rose, the valleys sank, unto the place which thou hadst founded for them; —9Thou hast set a bound which they may not pass over, that they turn not again to cover the earth.10He sendeth the springs into the valleys: they run among the mountains;11They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild asses quench their thirst.12The birds of heaven dwell by them; they give forth their voice from among the branches.13He watereth the mountains from his upper-chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.14He maketh the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man; bringing forth bread out of the earth,15And wine which gladdeneth the heart of man; making [his] face shine with oil; and with bread he strengtheneth man's heart.16The trees of Jehovah are satisfied, the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted,17Where the birds make their nests; [as for] the stork, the fir trees are her house.18The high mountains are for the wild goats; the cliffs, a refuge for the rock-badgers.19He made the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth its going down.20Thou makest darkness, and it is night, wherein all the beasts of the forest creep forth:21The young lions roar after the prey, and to seek their food from 1God.22The sun ariseth, they retreat, and lay them down in their dens.23Man goeth forth unto his work, and to his labour until the evening.24How manifold are thy works, O Jehovah! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.25Yonder is the great and wide sea: therein are moving things innumerable, living creatures small and great.26There go the ships; [there] that leviathan, which thou hast formed to play therein.
