26To cause it to rain kon the earth, where no man is;
On lthe wilderness, wherein there is no man;
27To satisfy the mdesolate and waste ground;
And to cause the bud of the ntender herb to spring forth?
28oHath the rain a father?
Or who hath begotten the drops of dew?

to bring rain on a land where no one lives,
a desert where no humans live,

or who fathered the drops of dew?
