Contextual Overview

7 God says, "My people, listen to me; Israel, I will testify against you. I am God, your God. 8 I do not scold you for your sacrifices. You always bring me your burnt offerings. 9 But I do not need bulls from your stalls or goats from your pens, 10 because every animal of the forest is already mine. The cattle on a thousand hills are mine. 11 I know every bird on the mountains, and every living thing in the fields is mine. 12 If I were hungry, I would not tell you, because the earth and everything in it are mine. 13 I don't eat the meat of bulls or drink the blood of goats. 14 Give an offering to show thanks to God. Give God Most High what you have promised. 15 Call to me in times of trouble. I will save you, and you will honor me."

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I know all the fowls of the mountains,.... God not only knows them, but takes care of them; not a sparrow fails to the ground without his knowledge, and all the fowls of the air are fed by him,

Matthew 10:29; and therefore needed not their turtledoves and young pigeons, which were the only fowls used in sacrifice;

and the wild beasts of the field [are] mine; which are mentioned in opposition to domestic ones, such as they had in their houses or folds,

Psalms 50:9.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

I know all the fowls of the mountains - That is, I am fully acquainted with their numbers; their nature; their habits; their residence. I have such a knowledge of them that I could appropriate them to my own use if I were in need of them. I am not, therefore, dependent on people to offer them, for I can use them as I please.

And the wild beasts of the field are mine - Margin, “with me.” That is, they are before me. They are never out of my presence. At any time, therefore, I could use them as I might need them. The word rendered “wild beasts” - זיז zı̂yz - means any moving thing; and the idea here is, whatever moves in the field, or roams abroad. Everything is his - whether on the mountains, in the forest, or in the cultivated field.
