He covers the heavens with clouds,
provides rain for the earth,
and makes the grass grow in mountain pastures.
He gives food to the wild animals
and feeds the young ravens when they cry.
He takes no pleasure in the strength of a horse
or in human might.
No, the LORD's delight is in those who fear him,
those who put their hope in his unfailing love.
No, the LORD's delight is in those who fear him, those who put their hope in his unfailing love.

I, the LORD, have spoken!" (see all Jeremiah 9)
