You visit the earth and water it, make it abundantly fertile. God’s stream is filled with water; you supply their grain. Thus do you prepare it:
Whether for punishment or mercy, he makes it happen.
You water the mountains from your chambers; from the fruit of your labor the earth abounds.
Who covers the heavens with clouds, provides rain for the earth, makes grass sprout on the mountains,
You poured abundant rains, God, your inheritance was weak and you repaired it.
I will give you your rains in due season, so that the land will yield its crops, and the trees their fruit;
May my teaching soak in like the rain, and my utterance drench like the dew, Like a downpour upon the grass, like a shower upon the crops.
