Psalm 104:13

 1 Praise the Lord, my soul.   Lord my God, you are very great; you are clothed with splendor and majesty.    2 The Lord wraps   himself in light   as with a garment; he stretches   out the heavens   like a tent    3     and lays the beams   of his upper chambers on their waters.   He makes the clouds   his chariot   and rides on the wings of the wind.    4 He makes winds his messengers,    flames of fire   his servants.  5 He set the earth   on its foundations;   it can never be moved.  6 You covered it   with the watery depths   as with a garment; the waters stood   above the mountains.  7 But at your rebuke   the waters fled, at the sound of your thunder   they took to flight;  8 they flowed over the mountains, they went down into the valleys, to the place you assigned   for them.  9 You set a boundary   they cannot cross; never again will they cover the earth.  10 He makes springs   pour water into the ravines; it flows between the mountains.  11 They give water   to all the beasts of the field; the wild donkeys   quench their thirst.  12 The birds of the sky   nest by the waters; they sing among the branches.    13 He waters the mountains   from his upper chambers;   the land is satisfied by the fruit of his work.   

From Wikipedia: 

The New International Version (NIV) is an English translation of the Bible first published in 1978 by Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society). The NIV was published to meet the need for a modern translation done by Bible scholars using the earliest, highest quality manuscripts available. Of equal importance was that the Bible be expressed in broadly understood modern English.

The NIV is published by Zondervan in the United States and Hodder & Stoughton in the UK. The NIV was updated in 1984 and 2011 and has become one of the most popular and best-selling modern translations.
