¹⁰ For as the rain comes down and the snow from the sky,
    and doesn’t return there, but waters the earth,
    and makes it grow and bud,
    and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater;
¹¹ so is my word that goes out of my mouth:
    it will not return to me void,
    but it will accomplish that which I please,
    and it will prosper in the thing I sent it to do.

² I will say of Yahweh, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
    my God, in whom I trust.”
³ For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler,
    and from the deadly pestilence.
