But the land you are entering to possess is a land of mountains and valleys, watered by rain from the sky.

I will provide rain for your land in the proper time, the autumn and spring rains, and you will harvest your grain, new wine, and oil.

Then the Lord’s anger will burn against you. He will close the sky, and there will be no rain; the land will not yield its produce, and you will perish quickly from the good land the Lord is giving you.

The Lord will open for you His abundant storehouse, the sky, to give your land rain in its season and to bless all the work of your hands. You will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow.

The Lord will turn the rain of your land into falling dust; it will descend on you from the sky until you are destroyed.

Let my teaching fall like rain
and my word settle like dew,
like gentle rain on new grass
and showers on tender plants.
