18The hie hilles are a refuge for the wilde goates: and the rockes for the conies. 19He appointed the moone for seasons; the sunne knoweth his going downe. 20Thou makest darknesse, and it is night: wherein all the beasts of the forrest doe creepe forth. 21The young lyons roare after their pray: and seeke their meate from God. 22The sunne ariseth, they gather themselues together: and lay them downe in their dennes.
