Psalms 104:18

The high hills [are] a refuge for the wild goats; [and] the rocks for the conies.

The high {H1364} hills {H2022} are a refuge {H4268} for the wild goats {H3277}; and the rocks {H5553} for the conies {H8227}.

For the wild goats there are the high mountains, while the coneys find refuge in the rocks.

The high mountains are for the wild goats, the cliffs a refuge for the rock badgers.

The high mountains are for the wild goats; The rocks are a refuge for the conies.
