who does great and untraceable things, glorious things also, and marvelous, of which there is no number:

And who prepared a course for the violent rain, and a way for the thunders;

and cause it to send forth a crop of green herbs?

and every herb of the field before it was on the earth, and all the grass of the field before it sprang up, for God had not rained on the earth, and there was not a man to cultivate it.

But there rose a fountain out of the earth, and watered the whole face of the earth.

You have visited the earth, and saturated it; You have abundantly enriched it. The river of God is filled with water; You have prepared their food, for thus is the preparation [of it].

You will bless the crown of the year [because] of Your goodness; and Your plains shall be filled with fatness.

The rams of the flock are clothed [with wool], and the valleys shall abound in grain; they shall cry aloud; yea, they shall sing hymns.

And I will forsake My vineyard; and it shall not be pruned, nor dug, and thorns shall come up upon it as on barren land; and I will command the clouds to rain no rain upon it.

Is there anyone among the idols of the Gentiles that can give rain? And will the sky yield His fullness [at their bidding]? Are not You He? We will even wait on You, O Lord, for You have made all these things.

The Lord will declare concerning this to His friend: [but there is] a portion also for unrighteousness.

Fire, hail, snow, ice, and stormy wind; the things that perform His word.
