Psalms 104:11
9 You set a boundary they cannot cross, that they may never again cover the earth.
10 He sends forth springs in the valleys; they flow between the mountains.
They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
12 The birds of the air nest beside the springs; they sing among the branches.
13 He waters the mountains from His chambers; the earth is satisfied by the fruit of His works.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
