Psalms 104:20 in Context — Psalms 104

18 Os altos montes são para as cabras selvagens; as rochas, refúgio para os coelhos.

19 Ele fez a lua para [marcar] os tempos, e o sol sobre seu poente.

20 Ele dá ordens à escuridão, e faz haver noite, quando saem todos os animais do mato.

21 Os filhos dos leões, rugindo pela presa, e para buscar de Deus sua comida.

22 Quando o sol volta a brilhar, [logo] se recolhem, e vão se deitar em suas tocas.
