6 Who by his strength established the mountains, being girded with power;
Establishing mountains by His power, He hath been girded with might,
7 Who stilleth the raging of the seas, the raging of their waves, and the tumult of the peoples.
Restraining the noise of seas, the noise of their billows, And the multitude of the peoples.
8 And they that dwell in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens; thou makest the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.

10 Thou dost satiate its furrows, thou smoothest its clods, thou makest it soft with showers; thou blessest the springing thereof.
Its ridges have been filled, Deepened hath been its furrow, With showers Thou dost soften it, Its springing up Thou blessest.
11 Thou crownest the year with thy goodness, and thy paths drop fatness:
Thou hast crowned the year of Thy goodness, And Thy paths drop fatness.
12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness, and the hills are girded with gladness.
Drop do the pastures of a wilderness, And joy of the heights Thou girdest on.
13 The meadows are clothed with flocks, and the valleys are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, yea, they sing.
Clothed have lambs the flock, And valleys are covered with corn, They shout — yea, they sing!
