¹⁰ As the rain^(A) and the snow
    come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
    without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,^(B)
    so that it yields seed^(C) for the sower and bread for the eater,^(D)
11 so is my word^(E) that goes out from my mouth:
    It will not return to me empty,^(F)
but will accomplish what I desire
    and achieve the purpose^(G) for which I sent it.

⁴ There is a river^(M) whose streams^(N) make glad the city of God,^(O)
    the holy place where the Most High^(P) dwells.^(Q)
5 God is within her,^(R) she will not fall;^(S)
    God will help^(T) her at break of day.
⁶ Nations^(U) are in uproar,^(V) kingdoms^(W) fall;
    he lifts his voice,^(X) the earth melts.^(Y)

⁷ The Lord Almighty^(Z) is with us;^(AA)
    the God of Jacob^(AB) is our fortress.^(AC)

⁸ Come and see what the Lord has done,^(AD)
    the desolations^(AE) he has brought on the earth.
⁹ He makes wars^(AF) cease
    to the ends of the earth.
He breaks the bow^(AG) and shatters the spear;
    he burns the shields^[d] with fire.^(AH)
10 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;^(AI)
    I will be exalted^(AJ) among the nations,
    I will be exalted in the earth.”
