Psalms 104:18
“The high mountains are for the wild goats. The rocks are a refuge for the rock badgers.”
What does Psalms 104:18 mean?
These lines paint a picture of how God has designed creation so that every creature finds its own place to thrive. The wild goats belong in the high, rocky peaks where they're naturally equipped to climb and survive, while rock badgers (small, shy animals that burrow in crevices) have their refuge in the stones below. The psalmist is marveling at how thoughtfully the world is arranged, with habitats perfectly suited to the animals who live there. It's a gentle reminder that in God's creation, there's provision and purpose for all creatures, great and small.
