service of men;]]

children within thee.

wheat.
147:15 He sends his oracle to the earth: his word will run swiftly.
147:16 He gives snow like wool: he scatters the mist like ashes.
147:17 Casting [forth] his ice like morsels: who shall stand before his
cold?
147:18 He shall send out his word, and melt them: he shall blow [with] his
wind, and the waters shall flow.

his judgments. |

who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

blow, and the waters flow.
