9. You set a boundary that they may not pass,so that they might not again cover the earth.
10. You make springs gush forth in the valleys;they flow between the hills;
11. they give drink to every beast of the field;the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
12. Beside them the birds of the heavens dwell;they sing among the branches.
13. From your lofty abode you water the mountains;the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.
14. You cause the grass to grow for the livestockand plants for man to cultivate,that he may bring forth food from the earth
15. and wine to gladden the heart of man, oil to make his face shineand bread to strengthen man’s heart.
16. The trees of the Lord are watered abundantly, the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.
17. In them the birds build their nests;the stork has her home in the fir trees.
18. The high mountains are for the wild goats;the rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.
19. He made the moon to mark the seasons;the sun knows its time for setting.
20. You make darkness, and it is night,when all the beasts of the forest creep about.
21. The young lions roar for their prey,seeking their food from God.
22. When the sun rises, they steal awayand lie down in their dens.
23. Man goes out to his workand to his labor until the evening.
24. O Lord, how manifold are your works!In wisdom have you made them all;the earth is full of your creatures.
