Psalms 104:13-24 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

13. He waters the mountains from His palace;the earth is satisfied by the fruit of Your labor.

14. He causes grass to grow for the livestockand provides crops for man to cultivate,producing food from the earth,

15. wine that makes man’s heart glad —making his face shine with oil —and bread that sustains man’s heart.

16. The trees of the Lord flourish, the cedars of Lebanon that He planted.

17. There the birds make their nests;the stork makes its home in the pine trees.

18. The high mountains are for the wild goats;the cliffs are a refuge for hyraxes.

19. He made the moon to mark the festivals; the sun knows when to set.

20. You bring darkness, and it becomes night,when all the forest animals stir.

21. The young lions roar for their preyand seek their food from God.

22. The sun rises; they go backand lie down in their dens.

23. Man goes out to his workand to his labor until evening.

24. How countless are Your works, Lord!In wisdom You have made them all;the earth is full of Your creatures.
