Psalms 104:7-23 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

7. At thy rebuke they fled, at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away; --

8. The mountains rose, the valleys sank, unto the place which thou hadst founded for them; --

9. Thou hast set a bound which they may not pass over, that they turn not again to cover the earth.

10. He sendeth the springs into the valleys: they run among the mountains;

11. They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild asses quench their thirst.

12. The birds of heaven dwell by them; they give forth their voice from among the branches.

13. He watereth the mountains from his upper-chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.

14. He maketh the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man; bringing forth bread out of the earth,

15. And wine which gladdeneth the heart of man; making his face shine with oil; and with bread he strengtheneth man's heart.

16. The trees of Jehovah are satisfied, the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted,

17. Where the birds make their nests; as for the stork, the fir trees are her house.

18. The high mountains are for the wild goats; the cliffs, a refuge for the rock-badgers.

19. He made the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth its going down.

20. Thou makest darkness, and it is night, wherein all the beasts of the forest creep forth:

21. The young lions roar after the prey, and to seek their food from ·God

22. The sun ariseth, they retreat, and lay them down in their dens.

23. Man goeth forth unto his work, and to his labour until the evening.
