New Testament

Psalm 104:20-28 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

20. You bring darkness, and it becomes night. Then all the animals of the forest prowl around.

21. The lions roar while they hunt. All of their food comes from God.

22. The sun rises, and they slip away. They return to their dens and lie down.

23. Then a man gets up and goes to work. He keeps working until evening.

24. Lord, you have made so many things! How wise you were when you made all of them! The earth is full of your creatures.

25. Look at the ocean, so big and wide! It is filled with more creatures than people can count. It is filled with living things, from the largest to the smallest.

26. Ships sail back and forth on it. The leviathan, the sea monster you made, plays in it.

27. All of those creatures depend on you to give them their food when they need it.

28. When you give it to them, they eat it. When you open your hand, they are satisfied with good things.
