who covers the heaven with clouds, who prepares rain for the earth, who causes grass to spring up on the mountains, [and green herb for the service of men];

but the land into which you go to inherit it is a land of mountains and plains; it shall drink the water of the rain of heaven.

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 set abundance of waters in the sky, and brought up clouds from the ends of the earth. He made lightnings for the rain, and brought forth light out of His treasures.

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.

so that you may prove to be sons of your Father in heaven; because He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and He sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

And yet He did not leave Himself without witness, in that He did good, giving to you rains from heaven and fruitbearing seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness."

Who covers His chambers with waters; who makes the clouds His chariot; who walks on the wings of the wind.

[It is He] that builds His ascent up to the sky, and establishes His promise on the earth; who calls the water of the sea, and pours it out on the face of the earth; the Lord Almighty is His name.

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.
