10 He makes springs(A) pour water into the ravines;
    it flows between the mountains.
11 They give water(B) to all the beasts of the field;
    the wild donkeys(C) quench their thirst.
12 The birds of the sky(D) nest by the waters;
    they sing among the branches.(E)
13 He waters the mountains(F) from his upper chambers;(G)
    the land is satisfied by the fruit of his work.(H)
14 He makes grass grow(I) for the cattle,
    and plants for people to cultivate—
    bringing forth food(J) from the earth:
15 wine(K) that gladdens human hearts,
    oil(L) to make their faces shine,
    and bread that sustains(M) their hearts.
16 The trees of the Lord(N) are well watered,
    the cedars of Lebanon(O) that he planted.
17 There the birds(P) make their nests;
    the stork has its home in the junipers.
18 The high mountains belong to the wild goats;(Q)
    the crags are a refuge for the hyrax.(R)

19 He made the moon to mark the seasons,(S)
    and the sun(T) knows when to go down.
20 You bring darkness,(U) it becomes night,(V)
    and all the beasts of the forest(W) prowl.
21 The lions roar for their prey(X)
    and seek their food from God.(Y)
22 The sun rises, and they steal away;
    they return and lie down in their dens.(Z)
23 Then people go out to their work,(AA)
    to their labor until evening.(AB)

24 How many are your works,(AC) Lord!
    In wisdom you made(AD) them all;
    the earth is full of your creatures.(AE)

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.
