¹² The Lord will give what is good; and our land will give its increase.

¹⁷ Every good and true thing is given to us from heaven, coming from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change or any shade made by turning.

¹¹ The Lord God is our sun and our strength: the Lord will give grace and glory: he will not keep back any good thing from those whose ways are upright.

⁶ The earth has given her increase; and God, even our God, will give us his blessing.

³⁰ But God has given you a place in Christ Jesus, through whom God has given us wisdom and righteousness and salvation, and made us holy:

²⁰ And hearing it, they gave praise to God; and they said to him, You see, brother, what thousands there are among the Jews, who have the faith; and they all have a great respect for the law:

⁴¹ Then those who gave hearing to his words had baptism: and about three thousand souls were joined to them that day.

²³ And the seed which was put in good earth, this is he who gives ear to the word, and gets the sense of it; who gives fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times as much.

⁸ And some, falling on good earth, gave fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times as much.

¹² For I will let the seed of peace be planted; the vine will give her fruit and the land will give her increase and the heavens will give their dew; and I will give to the rest of this people all these things for their heritage.

⁸ He has made clear to you, O man, what is good; and what is desired from you by the Lord; only doing what is right, and loving mercy, and walking without pride before your God.

¹⁵ Till the spirit comes on us from on high, and the waste land becomes a fertile field, and the fertile field is changed into a wood.

²³ And he will give rain for your seed, so that you may put it in the earth; and you will have bread from the produce of the earth, good and more than enough for your needs: in that day the cattle will get their food in wide grass-lands.

²⁴ And the oxen and the young asses which are used for ploughing, will have salted grain which has been made free from the waste with fork and basket.

¹⁶ May there be wide-stretching fields of grain in the land, shaking on the top of the mountains, full of fruit like Lebanon: may its stems be unnumbered like the grass of the earth.

⁴ Then I will give you rain at the right time, and the land will give her increase and the trees of the field will give their fruit;

³ Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us every blessing of the Spirit in the heavens in Christ:

⁶ I did the planting, Apollos did the watering, but God gave the increase.

⁷ So then the planter is nothing, and the waterer is nothing; but God who gives the increase.

⁸ Now the planter and the waterer are working for the same end: but they will have their separate rewards in the measure of their work.

⁹ For we are workers with God: you are God's planting, God's building.
