They give drink to every beast of the field - All are thus kept alive. The wild beasts that roam at large, find water thus provided for them. The wild donkeys quench their thirst - Margin, as in Hebrew, “break.” The meaning is, that the most wild and ungovernable of beasts - those which are farthest from the habits of domesticated animals, and the most independent of any aid derived from man, find abundance everywhere.
