You take care of the land.
    You water it and make it fertile.
Your streams are always filled with water.
    That’s how you make the crops grow.
10 You pour rain on the plowed fields;
    you soak the fields with water.
You make the ground soft with rain,
    and you make the young plants grow.
11 You start the new year with a good harvest.
    You end the year with many crops.[a]
