Psalm 104:19-26
English Standard Version
19 He made the moon to mark the (A)seasons;[a]
the sun knows its time for setting.
20 (B)You make darkness, and it is night,
when all the beasts of the forest creep about.
21 (C)The young lions roar for their prey,
seeking their food from God.
22 When the sun rises, they steal away
and lie down in their (D)dens.
23 (E)Man goes out to his work
and to his labor until the evening.
24 O Lord, how manifold are your works!
In (F)wisdom have you made them all;
the earth is full of your creatures.
25 Here is the sea, great and wide,
(G)which teems with creatures innumerable,
living things both small and great.
26 There go the ships,
and (H)Leviathan, which you formed to (I)play in it.[b]
