104:27All of your creatures35 wait for you
to provide them with food on a regular basis.36
104:28You give food to them and they receive it;
you open your hand and they are filled with food.37
104:29When you ignore them, they panic.38
When you take away their life’s breath, they die
and return to dust.
104:30When you send your life-giving breath, they are created,
and you replenish the surface of the ground.
Footnotes
- 35 Heb “All of them.” The pronoun “them” refers not just to the sea creatures mentioned in vv. 25–26, but to all living things (see v. 24). This has been specified in the translation as “all of your creatures” for clarity.
- 36 Heb “to give their food in its time.”
- 37 Heb “they are satisfied [with] good.”
- 38 Heb “you hide your face, they are terrified.”

These all look to you,
to give them their food in due season.
When you give it to them, they gather it up;
when you open your hand, they are filled with good things.
When you hide your face, they are dismayed;
when you take away their breath, they die
and return to their dust.
When you send forth your Spirit, they are created,
and you renew the face of the ground.

NLTNew Living Translation
They all depend on you
to give them food as they need it.
When you supply it, they gather it.
You open your hand to feed them,
and they are richly satisfied.
But if you turn away from them, they panic.
When you take away their breath,
they die and turn again to dust.
When you give them your breath, life is created,
and you renew the face of the earth.

KJV 1900King James Version
These wait all upon thee;
That thou mayest give them their meat in due season.
That thou givest them they gather:
Thou openest thine hand, they are filled with good.
Thou hidest thy face, they are troubled:
Thou takest away their breath, they die,
And return to their dust.
Thou sendest forth thy spirit, they are created:
And thou renewest the face of the earth.
