¹⁴ Causing grass to spring up for cattle, And herb for the service of man, To bring forth bread from the earth,

⁵ The earth! from it cometh forth bread, And its under-part is turned like fire.

⁸ Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing for the earth rain, Who is causing grass to spring up `on' mountains,

⁹ Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens that call.

²⁵ Giving food to all flesh, For to the age `is' His kindness.

³ Every creeping thing that is alive, to you it is for food; as the green herb I have given to you the whole;

¹⁸ and thorn and bramble it doth bring forth to thee, and thou hast eaten the herb of the field;

⁷ so that neither is he who is planting anything, nor he who is watering, but He who is giving growth -- God;

²² Do not fear, O cattle of the field! For sprung forth have pastures of a wilderness, For the tree hath borne its fruit, Fig-tree and vine have given their strength!

⁵ For even the hind in the field hath brought forth -- to forsake `it!' For there hath been no grass.

⁶ And wild asses have stood on high places, They have swallowed up wind like dragons, Consumed have been their eyes, for there is no herb.

¹⁵ The eyes of all unto Thee do look, And Thou art giving to them their food in its season,

¹⁶ Opening Thy hand, and satisfying The desire of every living thing.

²⁷ To satisfy a desolate and waste place, And to cause to shoot up The produce of the tender grass?

⁵ and Ahab saith unto Obadiah, `Go through the land, unto all fountains of waters, and unto all the brooks, if so be we find hay, and keep alive horse and mule, and do not cut off any of the cattle.'

¹² when thou tillest the ground, it doth not add to give its strength to thee -- a wanderer, even a trembling one, thou art in the earth.'

⁹ and Jehovah God causeth to sprout from the ground every tree desirable for appearance, and good for food, and the tree of life in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

⁵ and no shrub of the field is yet in the earth, and no herb of the field yet sprouteth, for Jehovah God hath not rained upon the earth, and a man there is not to serve the ground,

²⁹ And God saith, `Lo, I have given to you every herb sowing seed, which `is' upon the face of all the earth, and every tree in which `is' the fruit of a tree sowing seed, to you it is for food;

³⁰ and to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the heavens, and to every creeping thing on the earth, in which `is' breath of life, every green herb `is' for food:' and it is so.

¹¹ And God saith, `Let the earth yield tender grass, herb sowing seed, fruit-tree (whose seed `is' in itself) making fruit after its kind, on the earth:' and it is so.

¹² And the earth bringeth forth tender grass, herb sowing seed after its kind, and tree making fruit (whose seed `is' in itself) after its kind; and God seeth that `it is' good;
