²⁷ For ^(A)He draws up the drops of water,
They distill rain for His ^[a]stream,
²⁸ Which the clouds pour down,
They drip upon man abundantly.

⁸ He is the One who ^(A)covers the heavens with clouds,
The One who ^(B)provides rain for the earth,
The One who ^(C)makes grass to sprout on the mountains,

²² Are there any among the ^[a](A)idols of the nations who ^(B)give rain?
Or can the heavens give showers?
Is it not You, O Yahweh our God?
Therefore we ^[b](C)hope in You,
For You are the one who has done all these things.
