Description Genesis 1:20-25

20God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of sky." 21God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind. God saw that it was good. 22God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth." 23There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.

24God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, livestock, creeping things, and animals of the earth after their kind;" and it was so. 25God made the animals of the earth after their kind, and the livestock after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind. God saw that it was good.


Psalm 104:5-31

5He laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be moved forever.

6You covered it with the deep as with a cloak. The waters stood above the mountains.

7At your rebuke they fled. At the voice of your thunder they hurried away.

8The mountains rose, the valleys sank down, to the place which you had assigned to them.

9You have set a boundary that they may not pass over; that they don't turn again to cover the earth.

10He sends forth springs into the valleys. They run among the mountains.

11They give drink to every animal of the field. The wild donkeys quench their thirst.

12The birds of the sky nest by them. They sing among the branches.

13He waters the mountains from his rooms. The earth is filled with the fruit of your works.

14He causes the grass to grow for the livestock, and plants for man to cultivate, that he may bring forth food out of the earth:

15wine that makes glad the heart of man, oil to make his face to shine, and bread that strengthens man's heart.

16Yahweh's trees are well watered, the cedars of Lebanon, which he has planted;

17where the birds make their nests. The stork makes its home in the fir trees.

18The high mountains are for the wild goats. The rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.

19He appointed the moon for seasons. The sun knows when to set.

20You make darkness, and it is night, in which all the animals of the forest prowl.

21The young lions roar after their prey, and seek their food from God.

22The sun rises, and they steal away, and lay down in their dens.

23Man goes forth to his work, to his labor until the evening.

24Yahweh, how many are your works! In wisdom have you made them all. The earth is full of your riches.

25There is the sea, great and wide, in which are innumerable living things, both small and large animals.

26There the ships go, and leviathan, whom you formed to play there.

27These all wait for you, that you may give them their food in due season.

28You give to them; they gather. You open your hand; they are satisfied with good.

29You hide your face: they are troubled; you take away their breath: they die, and return to the dust.

30You send forth your Spirit: they are created. You renew the face of the ground.

31Let the glory of Yahweh endure forever. Let Yahweh rejoice in his works.
