The depths

Then God said, “Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear”; and it was so.

In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the floodgates of the sky were opened.

“Or who enclosed the sea with doors
When, bursting forth, it went out from the womb;

The mountains rose; the valleys sank down
To the place which You established for them.

The clouds

Now may God give you of the dew of heaven,
And of the fatness of the earth,
And an abundance of grain and new wine;

“So Israel dwells in security,

The fountain of Jacob secluded,

In a land of grain and new wine;

His heavens also drop down dew.

“For He draws up the drops of water,
They distill rain from the mist,

To bring rain on a land without people,
On a desert without a man in it,

You visit the earth and cause it to overflow;
You greatly enrich it;
The

stream of God is full of water;

You prepare their grain, for thus You prepare the earth.

Are there any among the

idols of the nations who give rain?

Or can the heavens grant showers?
Is it not You, O Lord our God?
Therefore we

hope in You,

For You are the one who has done all these things.

So rejoice, O sons of Zion,
And be glad in the Lord your God;
For He has given you the early rain for your vindication.
And He has poured down for you the rain,
The early and

latter rain as before.
