Psalm 104:8-10
New English Translation
8 as the mountains rose up,
and the valleys went down—
to the place you appointed for them.[a]
9 You set up a boundary for them that they could not cross,
so that they would not cover the earth again.[b]
10 He turns springs into streams;[c]
they flow between the mountains.
