13 Thy bars and gates he strengtheneth, Thy Children [in thee] he doth bless.
14 Thy borders he with peace doth bless, And fills thee with Wheat's [finest] flower;
15 His word goes forth through all the earth, And [swiftly] prospers by his power.
16 Hoar frost like ashes scattereth he, [On earth] like wool he snow doth give:
17 Like morsels he casts forth his ice, Who in his [extreme] cold can live?
