Psalm 104:14-27

New King James Version

^14 (A)He causes the grass to grow for the cattle,
And vegetation for the service of man,
That he may bring forth ^(B)food from the earth,
¹⁵ And ^(C)wine that makes glad the heart of man,
Oil to make his face shine,
And bread which strengthens man’s heart.
¹⁶ The trees of the Lord are full of sap,
The cedars of Lebanon which He planted,
¹⁷ Where the birds make their nests;
The stork has her home in the fir trees.
¹⁸ The high hills are for the wild goats;
The cliffs are a refuge for the ^(D)rock^[a] badgers.

^19 (E)He appointed the moon for seasons;
The ^(F)sun knows its going down.
^20 (G)You make darkness, and it is night,
In which all the beasts of the forest creep about.
^21 (H)The young lions roar after their prey,
And seek their food from God.
²² When the sun rises, they gather together
And lie down in their dens.
²³ Man goes out to ^(I)his work
And to his labor until the evening.

^24 (J)O Lord, how manifold are Your works!
In wisdom You have made them all.
The earth is full of Your ^(K)possessions—
²⁵ This great and wide sea,
In which are innumerable teeming things,
Living things both small and great.
²⁶ There the ships sail about;
There is that ^(L)Leviathan^[b]
Which You have ^[c]made to play there.

^27 (M)These all wait for You,
That You may give them their food in due season.
