Psalms 104:9

⁷ At Your rebuke the waters fled; at the sound of Your thunder they hurried away—

⁸ the mountains rose and the valleys sank to the place You assigned for them—

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.

¹¹ They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild donkeys quench their thirst.
