³⁴ "Can you lift up your voice to the clouds, That abundance of waters may cover you?

¹¹ Or darkness, so that you can not see, And floods of waters cover you.

¹⁸ So Samuel called to Yahweh; and Yahweh sent thunder and rain that day: and all the people greatly feared Yahweh and Samuel.

²⁷ For he draws up the drops of water, Which distill in rain from his vapor,

²⁸ Which the skies pour down And drop on man abundantly.

⁸ Seek him who made the Pleiades and Orion, And turns the shadow of death into the morning, And makes the day dark with night; Who calls for the waters of the sea, And pours them out on the surface of the earth, Yahweh is his name,

¹ Ask of Yahweh rain in the spring time, Yahweh who makes storm clouds, And he gives rain showers to everyone for the plants in the field.

¹⁸ He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth brought forth its fruit.
