Psalms 104:7-18 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

7. At your rebuke they fled; at the sound of your thunder they ran off.

8. They ascended the mountains and drained though the valleys to the place that you established for them.

9. You set a boundary that they may not cross over, so that they would not return to cover the earth.

10. You are the one who sends forth springs into the valleys; they flow between the mountains.

11. They give drink for every beast of the field. The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

12. Along them the birds of the heavens abide. From among the branches they sing.

13. You are the one who waters the mountains from his upper chambers. The earth is full with the fruit of your labors:

14. who causes grass to grow for the cattle and herbs for the service of humankind, to bring forth food from the earth,

15. and wine that makes glad the heart of man, so that their faces shine from oil, and bread that strengthens the heart of man.

16. The trees of Yahweh drink their fill, the cedars of Lebanon that he planted,

17. where birds make their nest. The stork has its home in the fir trees.

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