1 Heavens, listen to me. Then I will speak. Earth, hear the words of my mouth.
2 Let my teaching fall like rain. Let my words come down like dew. Let them be like raindrops on new grass. Let them be like rain on tender plants.
3 I will make known the name of the Lord. Praise God! How great he is!
4 He is the Rock. His works are perfect. All of his ways are right. He is faithful. He doesn't do anything wrong. He is honest and fair.
5 Israel , you have sinned against him very much. It's too bad for you that you aren't his children anymore. You have become a twisted and evil nation.
