6. Thou hadst covered it with the deep, as with a vesture; the waters stood above the mountains:
7. At thy rebuke they fled, at the voice of thy thunder they hasted away; --
8. The mountains rose, the valleys sank, unto the place which thou hadst founded for them; --
9. Thou hast set a bound which they may not pass over, that they turn not again to cover the earth.
10. He sendeth the springs into the valleys: they run among the mountains;
11. They give drink to every beast of the field; the wild asses quench their thirst.
12. The birds of heaven dwell by them; they give forth their voice from among the branches.
