¹⁹ He hath made the moone for certayne seasons: and the sunne knoweth his goyng downe. ²⁰ Thou makest darknes and it is night: wherein all the beastes of the forrest do go abrode. ²¹ The Lions do roare after a pray: and in seeking their meate of God. ²² When the sunne ariseth, they recoyle backe: and lay them downe to rest in their dennes. ²³ Man goeth foorth to his worke: and to do his seruice vntyll the euening. ²⁴ O God howe manyfolde are thy workes? thou hast made them al in wisdome, the earth is ful of thy ryches. ²⁵ So is the sea it selfe large and wyde in compasse: wherein are thinges creeping innumerable, both small and great beastes. ²⁶ There go the shippes, and there is that Leuiathan: whom thou hast made to take his pastime therin. ²⁷ These wayte all vpon thee: that thou mayest geue them meate in due season. ²⁸ When thou geuest it them, they gather it: and when thou openest thyne hand, they are filled with that which is good.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The sun ariseth, they gather themselves together,.... Having gone some one way, some another, seeking their prey; but upon the sun's rising gather together in order to return from whence they came, abhorring the light of the sun, as some creatures do, and fearing being hunted and taken by men, the fear of whom is still in some measure upon the beasts of the field, Genesis 9:2. So wicked men do not care for the light of the day, nor do false teachers choose to come to the light of the word; these owls and bats, these, as Tertullian calls them; and Satan himself chooses to set upon persons when they are in darkness, and in melancholy and disconsolate frames; and is afraid of believers, when they put on the armour of light, especially the shield of faith, and resist him with it, then he flees from them.

And lay them down in their dens; for rest and safety, and to feed themselves and young ones with the ravin they bring with them; see Song of Solomon 4:8.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The sun ariseth - A new scene in this endless variety of incidents in a world full of life and beauty. The psalmist sees the light break in the east, and the sun appear above the horizon - and the whole scene is changed. The animals that had gone forth at night are seen to return again to their hiding-places, and man in his turn Psalms 104:23 is seen to go forth to his daily toil.

They gather themselves together - Though scattered in the night, when light returns, they all bend their steps to the places where they are accustomed to repose in the daytime. The scene is most beautiful. At night they sally forth for their prey; when the morning light returns, they all retrace their steps to the places in dens and caverns where they pass the day, and there they repose in silence until night returns again.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 104:22. The sun ariseth — The dawn of day is the warning for man to arise and betake himself to his work; and is the warning to them to retire to their dens.
