Psalm 104:21-29

English Standard Version

²¹^(A)The young lions roar for their prey,
    seeking their food from God.
²²When the sun rises, they steal away
    and lie down in their ^(B)dens.
²³^(C)Man goes out to his work
    and to his labor until the evening.

²⁴O Lord, how manifold are your works!
    In ^(D)wisdom have you made them all;
    the earth is full of your creatures.
²⁵Here is the sea, great and wide,
    ^(E)which teems with creatures innumerable,
    living things both small and great.
²⁶There go the ships,
    and ^(F)Leviathan, which you formed to ^(G)play in it.^[a]

²⁷These ^(H)all look to you,
    to ^(I)give them their food in due season.
²⁸When you give it to them, they gather it up;
    when you ^(J)open your hand, they are filled with good things.
²⁹When you ^(K)hide your face, they are ^(L)dismayed;
    when you ^(M)take away their breath, they die
    and ^(N)return to their dust.
