1 “Earth and sky, hear my words,listen closely to what I say.
2 My teaching will fall like drops of rainand form on the earth like dew.My words will fall like showers on young plants,like gentle rain on tender grass.
3 I will praise the name of the Lord,and his people will tell of his greatness.
4 “The Lord is your mighty defender,perfect and just in all his ways;Your God is faithful and true;he does what is right and fair.
