³ It is like ^(A)the dew of ^(B)Hermon,
    which falls on ^(C)the mountains of Zion!
For there the Lord ^(D)has commanded the blessing,
    life for evermore.

^5 (A)I will be like the dew to Israel;
    ^(B)he shall blossom like the lily;
    he shall take root like the trees ^(C)of Lebanon;

⁷ Then ^(A)the remnant of Jacob shall be
    in the midst of many peoples
like dew from the Lord,
    like showers on the grass,
which delay not for a man
    nor wait for the children of man.
