Psalm 104:17

Verse 17 of 35. The 104th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

13He waters the mountains from his rooms. The earth is filled with the fruit of your works.

14He causes the grass to grow for the livestock, and plants for man to cultivate, that he may produce food out of the earth:

15wine that makes the heart of man glad, oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man’s heart.

16The LORD’s trees are well watered, the cedars of Lebanon, which he has planted,

17where the birds make their nests. The stork makes its home in the cypress trees.

18The high mountains are for the wild goats. The rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.

19He appointed the moon for seasons. The sun knows when to set.

20You make darkness, and it is night, in which all the animals of the forest prowl.

21The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God.
