Psalm 104:10–17

You make springs gush forth in the valleys;

they flow between the hills;

they give drink to every beast of the field;

the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

Beside them the birds of the heavens dwell;

they sing among the branches.

From your lofty abode you water the mountains;

the earth is satisfied with the fruit of your work.

You cause the grass to grow for the livestock

and plants for man to cultivate,

that he may bring forth food from the earth

and wine to gladden the heart of man,

oil to make his face shine

and bread to strengthen man’s heart.

The trees of the Lord are watered abundantly,

the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.

In them the birds build their nests;

the stork has her home in the fir trees.

He causes the springs to gush into the valleys;

they flow between the mountains.

They supply water for every wild beast;

the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

The birds of the sky live beside the springs;

they make their voices heard among the foliage.

He waters the mountains from his palace;

the earth is satisfied by the fruit of your labor.

He causes grass to grow for the livestock

and provides crops for man to cultivate,

producing food from the earth,

wine that makes human hearts glad—

making his face shine with oil—

and bread that sustains human hearts.

The trees of the Lord flourish,

the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.

There the birds make their nests;

storks make their homes in the pine trees.

You make springs pour water into the ravines,

so streams gush down from the mountains.

They provide water for all the animals,

and the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

The birds nest beside the streams

and sing among the branches of the trees.

You send rain on the mountains from your heavenly home,

and you fill the earth with the fruit of your labor.

You cause grass to grow for the livestock

and plants for people to use.

You allow them to produce food from the earth—

wine to make them glad,

olive oil to soothe their skin,

and bread to give them strength.

The trees of the Lord are well cared for—

the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.

There the birds make their nests,

and the storks make their homes in the cypresses.

You are the one who sends forth springs into the valleys;

they flow between the mountains.

They give drink for every beast of the field.

The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

Along them the birds of the heavens abide.

From among the branches they sing.

You are the one who waters the mountains

from his upper chambers.

The earth is full with the fruit of your labors:

who causes grass to grow for the cattle

and herbs for the service of humankind,

to bring forth food from the earth,

and wine that makes glad the heart of man,

so that their faces shine from oil,

and bread that strengthens the heart of man.

The trees of Yahweh drink their fill,

the cedars of Lebanon that he planted,

where birds make their nest.

The stork has its home in the fir trees.

He sendeth the springs into the valleys,

Which run among the hills.

They give drink to every beast of the field:

The wild asses quench their thirst.

By them shall the fowls of the heaven have their habitation,

Which sing among the branches.

He watereth the hills from his chambers:

The earth is satisfied with the fruit of thy works.

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;

And wine that maketh glad the heart of man,

And oil to make his face to shine,

And bread which strengtheneth man’s heart.

The trees of the Lord are full of sap;

The cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;

Where the birds make their nests:

As for the stork, the fir trees are her house.
