which run among the hills.
11 All beasts of the field drink thereof: and the wild asses
quench their thirst.
12 Beside them shall the fowls of the air have their habitation:
and sing among the branches.
13 He watereth the hills from above: the earth is filled with the
fruit of thy works.
14 He bringeth forth grass for the cattle: and green herb for the
service of men;
15 That he may bring food out of the earth, and wine that maketh
glad the heart of man: and oil to make him a cheerful countenance,
and bread to strengthen man's heart.
16 The trees of the Lord also are full of sap: even the cedars of
Libanus which he hath planted;
17 Wherein the birds make their nests: and the fir-trees are a
dwelling for the stork.
18 The high hills are a refuge for the wild goats: and so are the
stony rocks for the conies.
19 He appointed the moon for certain seasons: and the sun knoweth
his going down.
20 Thou makest darkness that it maybe night: wherein all the
beasts of the forest do move.
21 The lions roaring after their prey: do seek their meat from God.
22 The sun ariseth, and they get them away together: and lay them
down in their dens.
23 Man goeth forth to 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 the great and wide sea also: wherein are things creeping
innumerable, both small and great beasts.
26 There go the ships, and there is that leviathan: whom thou
hast made to take his pastime therein.
27 These wait all upon thee: that thou mayest give them meat in
due season.
28 When thou givest it them they gather it: and when thou openest
thy hand they are filled with good.
29 When thou hidest thy face they are troubled: when thou takest
away their breath they die, and are turned again to their dust.
30 When thou lettest thy breath go forth they shall be made: and
thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
31 The glorious majesty of the Lord shall endure for ever: the
Lord shall rejoice in his works.
32 The earth shall tremble at the look of him: if he do but touch
the hills, they shall smoke.
33 I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live: I will praise my
God while I have my being.
34 And so shall my words please him: my joy shall be in the Lord.
35 As for sinners, they shall be consumed out of the earth, and
the ungodly shall come to an end: praise tho
