⁹ Thou hast inspected the earth, and waterest it, Thou makest it very rich, the rivulet of God `is' full of water, Thou preparest their corn, When thus Thou dost prepare it,

⁴ A river -- its rivulets rejoice the city of God, Thy holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High.

¹³ Watering hills from His upper chambers, From the fruit of Thy works is the earth satisfied.

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

¹⁵ And wine -- it rejoiceth the heart of man, To cause the face to shine from oil, And bread -- the heart of man it supporteth.

⁹ A shower of free-will gifts thou shakest out, O God. Thine inheritance, when it hath been weary, Thou hast established it.

¹⁰ Thy company have dwelt in it, Thou preparest in Thy goodness for the poor, O God.

²⁴ And they have not said in their heart, `Let us fear, we pray you, Jehovah our God, who is giving rain, The sprinkling and the gathered, in its season, The appointed weeks of harvest He keepeth for us.'

²² Are there among the vanities of the nations any causing rain? And do the heavens give showers? Art not Thou He, O Jehovah our God? And we wait for thee, for Thou -- Thou hast done all these!

²³ And ye sons of Zion, joy and rejoice, In Jehovah your God, For He hath given to you the Teacher for righteousness, And causeth to come down to you a shower, Sprinkling and gathered -- in the beginning.

²⁴ And full have been the floors `with' pure corn, And overflown have the presses `with' new wine and oil.

²⁵ And I have recompensed to you the years That consume did the locust, the cankerworm, And the caterpillar, and the palmer-worm, My great force that I did send against you.

²⁶ And ye have eaten, eating and being satisfied, And have praised the name of Jehovah your God, Who hath dealt with you wonderfully, And not ashamed are My people to the age.

¹⁷ though, indeed, without witness He did not leave himself, doing good -- from heaven giving rains to us, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness;'

¹⁷ Those rich in the present age charge thou not to be high-minded, nor to hope in the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, who is giving to us all things richly for enjoyment; --

¹⁸ to do good, to be rich in good works, to be ready to impart, willing to communicate,

¹ And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, bright as crystal, going forth out of the throne of God and of the Lamb:

¹⁴ Who is making thy border peace, `With' the fat of wheat He satisfieth Thee.

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.

⁴ then I have given your rains in their season, and the land hath given her produce, and the tree of the field doth give its fruit;

¹¹ but the land whither ye are passing over to possess it, `is' a land of hills and valleys; of the rain of the heavens it drinketh water;

¹² a land which Jehovah thy God is searching; continually `are' the eyes of Jehovah thy God upon it, from the beginning of the year even unto the latter end of the year.

⁶ And she riseth, she and her daughters-in-law, and turneth back from the fields of Moab, for she hath heard in the fields of Moab that God hath looked after His people, -- to give to them bread.

¹⁰ Who is giving rain on the face of the land, And is sending waters on the out-places.

¹¹ To set the low on a high place, And the mourners have been high `in' safety.

⁶ For to snow He saith, `Be `on' the earth.' And the small rain and great rain of His power.

⁷ Into the hand of every man he sealeth, For the knowledge by all men of His work.

⁸ And enter doth the beast into covert, And in its habitations it doth continue.

⁹ From the inner chamber cometh a hurricane, And from scatterings winds -- cold,

¹⁰ From the breath of God is frost given, And the breadth of waters is straitened,

¹¹ Yea, by filling He doth press out a cloud, Scatter a cloud doth His light.

¹² And it is turning itself round by His counsels, For their doing all He commandeth them, On the face of the habitable earth.

¹³ Whether for a rod, or for His land, Or for kindness -- He doth cause it to come.

¹ A Psalm of David, in his being in the wilderness of Judah. O God, Thou `art' my God, earnestly do I seek Thee, Thirsted for Thee hath my soul, Longed for Thee hath my flesh, In a land dry and weary, without waters.

¹¹ Thou hast crowned the year of Thy goodness, And Thy paths drop fatness.

³⁷ And they sow fields, and plant vineyards, And they make fruits of increase.

¹² And Isaac soweth in that land, and findeth in that year a hundredfold, and Jehovah blesseth him;
