^5 (A)I will be like the dew to Israel;
    ^(B)he shall blossom like the lily;
    he shall take root like the trees ^(C)of Lebanon;

² it shall blossom abundantly
    and rejoice with joy and singing.
^(A)The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it,
    the majesty of ^(B)Carmel and ^(C)Sharon.
^(D)They shall see the glory of the Lord,
    the majesty of our God.

¹⁶ May there be abundance of grain in the land;
    on the tops of the mountains may it wave;
    may its fruit be like Lebanon;
and may people ^(A)blossom in the cities
    like the ^(B)grass of the field!

¹⁹ my ^(A)roots spread out to ^(B)the waters,
    with the dew all night on my ^(C)branches,

² May ^(A)my teaching drop as the rain,
    my speech distill as the dew,
like gentle rain upon the tender grass,
    and ^(B)like showers upon the herb.

⁷ Then ^(A)the remnant of Jacob shall be
    in the midst of many peoples
like dew from the Lord,
    like showers on the grass,
which delay not for a man
    nor wait for the children of man.
