²⁸ May God give you heaven’s dew^(A)
    and earth’s richness^(B)—
    an abundance of grain^(C) and new wine.^(D)

²⁸ So Israel will live in safety;^(A)
    Jacob will dwell^[a] secure
in a land of grain and new wine,
    where the heavens drop dew.^(B)

³ It is as if the dew^(A) of Hermon^(B)
    were falling on Mount Zion.^(C)
For there the Lord bestows his blessing,^(D)
    even life forevermore.^(E)

⁵ I will be like the dew^(A) to Israel;
    he will blossom like a lily.^(B)
Like a cedar of Lebanon^(C)
    he will send down his roots;^(D)

⁷ The remnant^(A) of Jacob will be
    in the midst of many peoples
like dew^(B) from the Lord,
    like showers on the grass,^(C)
which do not wait for anyone
    or depend on man.
