14 I* also shall certainly give rain for YOUR land at its appointed time,+ autumn rain and spring rain,*+ and you will indeed gather your grain and your sweet wine and your oil.

10 “Make YOUR requests of Jehovah for rain+ in the time of the spring rain,+ even of Jehovah who is making the storm clouds,+ and [who] gives a downpour of rain to them,+ to each one vegetation in the field.+

7 Exercise patience, therefore, brothers, until the presence*+ of the Lord. Look! The farmer keeps waiting for the precious fruit of the earth, exercising patience over it until he gets the early rain and the late rain.+
