Psalms 104:7-18

7They fledH5127 from Your 1rebukeH1606, At the 2soundH6963 of Your thunderH7482 they hurriedH2648 awayH2648.8The mountainsH2022 roseH5927; the valleysH1237 sankH3381 downH3381 To the 3placeH4725 whichH2088 You establishedH3245 for them.9You setH7760 a 4boundaryH1366 so that they will not passH5674 overH5674, So that they will not returnH7725 to coverH3680 the earthH776.

105He sendsH7971 forth 6springsH4599 in the valleysH5158; They flowH1980 betweenH996 the mountainsH2022;11They 7giveH8248 drinkH8248 to everyH3605 animalH2421 of the fieldH7706; The 8wildH6501 donkeysH6501 quenchH7665 their thirstH6772.12The birdsH5775 of the skyH8064 9dwellH7931 10besideH5921 them; They 11liftH5414 upH5414 their voicesH6963 from amongH996 the branchesH6074.1312He 13watersH8248 the mountainsH2022 from His upperH5944 chambersH5944; 14The earthH776 isH7646 satisfiedH7646 with the fruitH6529 of His worksH4639.

1415He causes the 16grassH2682 to growH6779 for the 17cattleH929, And 18vegetationH6212 for the laborH5656 of mankindH120, So that 19they may produceH3318 20foodH3899 21from the earthH776,15And 22wineH3196, which makesH8055 a humanH582 heartH3824 cheerfulH8055, 23So that he makes his faceH6440 gleamH6670 with oilH8081, And 24foodH3899, which 25sustainsH5582 a humanH582 heartH3824.16The treesH6086 of the LordH3068 26drinkH7646 their fillH7646, The cedarsH730 of LebanonH3844 whichH834 He plantedH5193,17WhereH834H8033 the 27birdsH6833 buildH7077 their nestsH7077, And the 28storkH2624, whose homeH1004 is the juniperH1265 treesH1265.

18The highH1364 mountainsH2022 are for the 29wildH3277 goatsH3277; The 30cliffsH5553 are a refugeH4268 for the 31rockH8227 hyraxH8227.
