Psalms 104:16
The trees of the LORD have their fill, the cedars of Lebanon that He planted,
BSB
ASV
The trees of Jehovah are filled with moisture, The cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
KJV
The trees of the Lord are full of sap; the cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted;
The watering of the hills not only produces the grass and the cultivated herbs, but also the nobler species of vegetation, which come not within the range of human culture: The trees of the Lord—the greatest, noblest, and most royal of trees; those too which are unowned of man, and untouched by his hand. Are full of sap, or are full, well supplied, richly watered, so that they become, as the cedars, full of resin, flowing with life, and verdant all the year round. The cedars of Lebanon, which he hath planted.
Rare words are the text's own signal of a deliberate thread: the fewer the occurrences, the more the places it appears belong together.
