17. where the birds make their nests.The stork makes its home in the cypress trees.
18. The high mountains are for the wild goats.The rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.
19. He appointed the moon for seasons.The sun knows when to set.
20. You make darkness, and it is night,in which all the animals of the forest prowl.
21. The young lions roar after their prey,and seek their food from God.
22. The sun rises, and they steal away,and lay down in their dens.
23. Man goes out to his work,to his labour until the evening.
24. The Lord, how many are your works!In wisdom have you made them all.The earth is full of your riches.
25. There is the sea, great and wide,in which are innumerable living things,both small and large animals.
26. There the ships go,and leviathan, whom you formed to play there.
27. These all wait for you,that you may give them their food in due season.
28. You give to them; they gather.You open your hand; they are satisfied with good.
29. You hide your face: they are troubled;you take away their breath: they die, and return to the dust.
30. You send out your Spirit and they are created.You renew the face of the ground.
31. Let the Lord’s glory endure forever.Let the Lord rejoice in his works.
32. He looks at the earth, and it trembles.He touches the mountains, and they smoke.
33. I will sing to the Lord as long as I live.I will sing praise to my God while I have any being.
