The Key Word — יָדַע, Ya.da'.tigenerated
The verb יָדַע (yada`) means 'to know' and encompasses a range of meanings, including perception, recognition, and intimate acquaintance. In this verse, it indicates not just awareness but a deep understanding of every bird and creature, suggesting a personal connection.
The perfect tense in the first person singular indicates that this knowledge is complete and ongoing. God's knowledge is not merely factual; it implies a relationship with His creation, showcasing His care and authority over all living things.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb יָדַעְתִּי (I know) governs the entire sentence, with two noun phrases acting as objects: כָּל־ע֣וֹף (every bird) and וְזִ֥יז (and the creatures). The structure emphasizes God's comprehensive knowledge and ownership over both birds and creatures.
The word order places the verb first, highlighting God's assertion of knowledge and authority. The subsequent phrases elaborate on the scope of His knowledge, reinforcing the theme of divine sovereignty.

The use of πετεινὰ for ע֣וֹף indicates a broader category of flying creatures, aligning with the Greek understanding of avian life.

The Masoretic Text reads יָ֭דַעְתִּי כָּל־ ע֣וֹף הָרִ֑ים וְזִ֥יז שָׂ֝דַ֗י עִמָּדִֽי׃, while the Septuagint matches 6 of the 7 words, preserving the meaning while differing in word order and phrasing.

Are among the most sublime and impressive of the Creator’s works on earth, and from the noblest and most enduring monuments of great events. Most of the mountains of Scripture thus stand as witnesses for God—every view of their lofty summits, and every recurrence to them in thought reminding us of the sacred facts and truths connected with them. Thus Mount Ararat is a standing memorial of the deluge of man’s sin, God’s justice, and God’s mercy. Mount Sinai asserts the terrors of the divine law. Mount Carmel summons us, like the prophet Elijah of old, not to "halt between two opinions;" but if Jehovah is God, to love and serve him. The mount of the Transfiguration still shines with the glory of the truths there taught, and Mounts Ebal and Gerizim still echo the curses and the blessings once so solemnly pronounced from them.

Field
(Heb. sadeh), a cultivated field, but unenclosed. It is applied to any cultivated ground or pasture (Gen. 29:2; 31:4; 34:7), or tillage (Gen. 37:7; 47:24). It is also applied to woodland (Ps. 132:6) or mountain top (Judg. 9:32, 36; 2 Sam. 1:21). It denotes sometimes a cultivated region as opposed to the wilderness (Gen. 33:19; 36:35). Unwalled villages or scattered houses are spoken of as “in the fields” (Deut. 28:3, 16; Lev. 25:31;
The Hebrew sadeh is applied to any cultivated ground, and in some instances in marked opposition to the neighboring wilderness. On the other hand the sadeh is frequently contrasted with what is enclosed, whether a vineyard, a garden or a walled town. In many passages the term implies what is remote from a house, (Genesis 4:8; 24:63; 22:25) or settled habitation, as in the case of Esau.
