[He shall be] as the light of the morning, when the sun rises, a morning without clouds, [When] the tender grass [springs] out of the earth, Through clear shining after rain.
For the LORD said to me, *I will be still, and I will see in my dwelling place, like clear heat in sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.*
Your dead shall live. My dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, you who dwell in the dust; for your dew is like the dew of herbs, and the earth will cast forth the dead.
It will blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing. Levanon's glory Levanon will be given to it, the excellence of Karmel and Sharon. They will see the LORD's glory, the excellence of our God.
Distil, you heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, that it may bring forth yeshu`ah, and let it cause righteousness to spring up together; I, the LORD, have created it.
Let us acknowledge the LORD. Let us press on to know the LORD. As surely as the sun rises, The LORD will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth.*
The remnant of Ya`akov will be in the midst of many peoples, like dew from the LORD, like showers on the grass, that don't wait for man, nor wait for the sons of men.
Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn't retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.
Consider the lilies, how they grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Shlomo in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
