Psalms 104:7-18

7and fled because of your threat. Water ran away at the sound of your thunder.

8The mountains rose and the valleys sank to the place you appointed for them.

9Water cannot cross the boundary you set and cannot come back to cover the earth.

10You make water gush from springs into valleys. It flows between the mountains.

11Every wild animal drinks ⌞from them⌟. Wild donkeys quench their thirst.

12The birds live by the streams. They sing among the branches.

13You water the mountains from your home above. You fill the earth with the fruits of your labors.

14You make grass grow for cattle and make vegetables for humans to use in order to get food from the ground.

15You make wine to cheer human hearts, olive oil to make faces shine, and bread to strengthen human hearts.

16The Lord’s trees, the cedars in Lebanon which he planted, drink their fill.

17Birds build their nests in them. Storks make their homes in fir trees.

18The high mountains are for wild goats. The rocks are a refuge for badgers.
