Psalms 104:11-12

104:11 They provide water for all the animals in the field;

the wild donkeys quench their thirst.

104:12 The birds of the sky live beside them;

they chirp among the bushes. ¹ 

Psalms 104:27-28

104:27 All of your creatures ²  wait for you

to provide them with food on a regular basis. ³ 

104:28 You give food to them and they receive it;

you open your hand and they are filled with food. ⁴ 

[104:12]  ¹ tn Heb “among the thick foliage they give a sound.”

[104:27]  ² tn Heb “All of them.” The pronoun “them” refers not just to the sea creatures mentioned in vv. 25-26, but to all living things (see v. 24). This has been specified in the translation as “all of your creatures” for clarity.

[104:27]  ³ tn Heb “to give their food in its time.”

[104:28]  ⁴ tn Heb “they are satisfied [with] good.”
