Psalms 104:10-23

10You cause springs of water to pour along the valleys. Streams of water run between the hills.

11They give water to all the wild animals. Wild donkeys drink from them.

12The birds make their homes beside the streams. They sing from the branches of the trees.

13You pour down rain on the mountains from your home above the sky. You cause many fruits to grow on the earth.

14You give grass for farm animals to eat. You give crops for people to plant. In that way, people get food from the ground.

15They grow grapes for wine, which makes them happy. They grow olive trees for oil, which makes their faces shine. They grow grain for bread, which makes them strong.

16The Lord's own trees receive plenty of rain. They are the cedar trees that he planted in Lebanon.

17The birds make their nests there. Storks live there in the fir trees.

18The wild goats live high up in the mountains. Rock badgers hide among the rocks.

19You made the moon to tell us the months and seasons. The sun also knows the right time for sunset.

20At night you make it dark, so that the forest animals come out.

21The lions roar while they look for animals to kill. They look for the food that God gives to them.

22At sunrise, they go back to their homes, and they lie down to rest.

23During the day, people go out to work. They work at their jobs until it is evening.
