Contextual Overview
7 My people, I am God! Israel, I am your God. Listen to my charges against you. 8 Although you offer sacrifices and always bring gifts, 9 I won't accept your offerings of bulls and goats. 10 Every animal in the forest belongs to me, and so do the cattle on a thousand hills. 11 I know all the birds in the mountains, and every wild creature is in my care. 12 If I were hungry, I wouldn't tell you, because I own the world and everything in it. 13 I don't eat the meat of bulls or drink the blood of goats. 14 I am God Most High! The only sacrifice I want is for you to be thankful and to keep your word. 15 Pray to me in time of trouble. I will rescue 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.
