¹⁰ You provide streams of water
    in the hills and valleys,
¹¹ so that the donkeys
and other wild animals
    can satisfy their thirst.
¹² Birds build their nests nearby
    and sing in the trees.
¹³ From your home above
you send rain on the hills
    and water the earth.
¹⁴ You let the earth produce
    grass for cattle,
    plants for our food,
¹⁵     wine to cheer us up,
    olive oil for our skin,
    and grain for our health.

¹⁶ Our Lord, your trees
    always have water,
and so do the cedars
    you planted in Lebanon.
¹⁷ Birds nest in those trees,
and storks make their home
    in the fir trees.
¹⁸ Wild goats find a home
    in the tall mountains,
and small animals can hide
    between the rocks.

¹⁹ You created the moon
    to tell us the seasons.
The sun knows when to set,
²⁰     and you made the darkness,
so the animals in the forest
    could come out at night.
²¹ Lions roar as they hunt
    for the food you provide.
²² But when morning comes,
    they return to their dens,
²³ then we go out to work
    until the end of day.
