Psalms 104:5-13

5Who laidH3245 the foundationsH4349 of the earthH776, that it should not be removedH4131 for everH5703H5769.1

6Thou coveredstH3680 it with the deepH8415 as with a garmentH3830: the watersH4325 stoodH5975 above the mountainsH2022.

7AtH4480 thy rebukeH1606 they fledH5127; at the voiceH6963 of thy thunderH7482 they hastedH2648 away.

8They go upH5927 by the mountainsH2022; they go downH3381 by the valleysH1237 unto the placeH4725 whichH2088 thou hast foundedH3245 for them.2

9Thou hast setH7760 a boundH1366 that they may not pass overH5674; that they turn not againH7725 to coverH3680 the earthH776.

10He sendethH7971 the springsH4599 into the valleysH5158, which runH1980 among the hillsH2022.34

11They give drinkH8248 to every beastH2416 of the fieldH7704: the wild donkeysH6501 quenchH7665 their thirstH6772.5

12By them shall the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064 have their habitationH7931, which singH6963H5414 amongH996 the branchesH6073.6

13He waterethH8248 the hillsH2022 from his chambersH5944: the earthH776 is satisfiedH7646 with the fruitH6529 of thy worksH4639.
