7 At thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away. |
8 They go up by the mountains; they go down by the valleys unto the place which thou hast founded for them. |
9 Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth. |
10 He sendeth the springs into the valleys, which run among the hills. |
11 They give drink to every beast of the field: the wild asses quench their thirst. |
12 By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation, which sing among the branches. |
13 He watereth the hills from his chambers: the earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works. |
14 He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and herb for the service of man: that he may bring forth food out of the earth; |
15 And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man's heart. |
16 The trees of the LORD are full of sap; 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 hills are a refuge for the wild goats; and the rocks for the conies. |
19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down. |
20 Thou makest darkness, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the forest do creep forth. |
21 The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their meat from God. |
22 The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together, and lay them down in their dens. |
23 Man goeth forth unto his work and to his labour until the evening. |
24 O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches. |
25 So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts. |
26 There go the ships: there is that leviathan, whom thou hast made to play therein. |
27 These wait all upon thee; that thou mayest give them their meat in due season. |
28 That thou givest them they gather: thou openest thine hand, they are filled with good. |
29 Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled: thou takest away their breath, they die, and return to their dust. |
30 Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created: and thou renewest the face of the earth. |
