The Song of the Forest Animals
Creation never stops singing to Hashem; even in the deepest jungle where the wild animals live and roam, they never stop singing all day long with their praise of Hashem...
Translation by Rabbi Lazer Brody with illustrations by Rebecca Shapiro
Perek Shira for children, Part 17
The Bear says: "The wilderness and its cities shall lift raise their voices, the courtyards where Kedar dwells, the rock-dwellers shall rejoice, they will shout from the mountain peaks. They will give glory to Hashem and tell of His praise on the islands." (Isaiah 42:11-12)
The Wolf says: "For every criminal act – for the ox, the donkey, the lamb, the garment, for every lost item which he says, ‘This is it!’, shall they both come with their claim to the judge; he who the judge finds guilty shall pay double to his fellow." (Exodus 22:8)
The Fox says: "Woe to him that builds his house without righteousness and his upstairs rooms without justice; he employs his fellow with no wages, and will not pay him his due." (Jeremiah 22:13)
