Psalms 104:6-26
6You 1coveredH3680 it with the deepH8415 as with a garmentH3830; The watersH4325 were standingH5975 aboveH5921 the mountainsH2022.7At Your 2rebukeH1606 they fledH5127, At the 3soundH6963 of Your thunderH7482 they hurriedH2648 awayH2648.8The mountainsH2022 roseH5927; the valleysH1237 sankH3381 downH3381 To the 4placeH4725 whichH2088 You establishedH3245 for them.9You setH7760 a 5boundaryH1366 that they may not passH5674 overH5674, So that they will not returnH7725 to coverH3680 the earthH776.
106He sendsH7971 forth 7springsH4599 in the valleysH5158; They flowH1980 betweenH996 the mountainsH2022;11They 8giveH8248 drinkH8248 to everyH3605 beastH2421 of the fieldH7706; The 9wildH6501 donkeysH6501 quenchH7665 their thirstH6772.1210BesideH5921 them the birdsH5775 of the heavensH8064 11dwellH7931; They 12liftH5414 up their voicesH6963 amongH4480H996 the branchesH6074.1313He 14watersH8248 the mountainsH2022 from His upperH5944 chambersH5944; 15The earthH776 is satisfiedH7646 with the fruitH6529 of His worksH4639.
1416He causes the 17grassH2682 to growH6779 for the 18cattleH929, And 19vegetationH6212 for the 20laborH5656 of manH120, So that 21he may bringH3318 forthH3318 22foodH3899 23from the earthH776,15And 24wineH3196 which makesH8055 man’sH582 heartH3824 gladH8055, 25So that he may make his faceH6440 glistenH6670 with oilH8081, And 26foodH3899 which 27sustainsH5582 man’sH582 heartH3824.16The treesH6086 of the LordH3068 28drinkH7646 their fillH7646, The cedarsH730 of LebanonH3844 whichH834 He plantedH5193,17WhereH834H8033 the 29birdsH6833 buildH7077 their nestsH7077, And the 30storkH2624, whose homeH1004 is the 31firH1265 treesH1265.
18The highH1364 mountainsH2022 are for the 32wildH3277 goatsH3277; The 33cliffsH5553 are a refugeH4268 for the 3435shephanimH8227.19He madeH6213 the moonH3394 36for the seasonsH4150; The 37sunH8121 knowsH3045 the placeH3996 of its settingH3996.20You 38appointH7896 darknessH2822 and it becomesH1961 nightH3915, In which allH3605 the 39beastsH2421 of the forestH3293 40prowlH7430 aboutH7430.21The 41youngH3715 lionsH3715 roarH7580 after their preyH2964 42And 43seekH1245 their foodH400 from GodH410.22When the sunH8121 risesH2224 they withdrawH622 And lieH7257 downH7257 in their 44densH4585.23ManH120 goesH3318 forthH3318 to 45his workH6467 And to his laborH5656 untilH5704 eveningH6153.
24O LordH3068, howH4100 46manyH7231 are Your worksH4639! 47In 48wisdomH2451 You have madeH6213 them allH3605; The 49earthH776 is fullH4390 of Your 50possessionsH7075.2551ThereH2088 is the 52seaH3220, greatH1419 and 53broadH7342, In whichH8033 are swarmsH7431 withoutH369 numberH4557, AnimalsH2421 both smallH6996 and greatH1419.26ThereH8033 the 54shipsH591 moveH1980 along, And 5556LeviathanH3882, whichH2088 You have formedH3336 to sportH7832 in it.
