וְכֹ֣ל ׀ שִׂ֣יחַ הַשָּׂדֶ֗ה טֶ֚רֶם יִֽהְיֶ֣ה בָאָ֔רֶץ וְכָל־עֵ֥שֶׂב הַשָּׂדֶ֖ה טֶ֣רֶם יִצְמָ֑ח כִּי֩ לֹ֨א הִמְטִ֜יר יְהוָ֤ה אֱלֹהִים֙ עַל־הָאָ֔רֶץ וְאָדָ֣ם אַ֔יִן לַֽעֲבֹ֖ד אֶת־הָֽאֲדָמָֽה׃
Y toda planta del campo antes que fuese en la tierra, y toda hierba del campo antes que naciese: porque aun no había SEÑOR Dios hecho llover sobre la tierra, ni había hombre para que labrase la tierra;

R. Assi pointed out a contradiction between verses. One verse says: And the earth brought forth grass, referring to the third day whereas another verse No shrub of the field was yet in the earth.when speaking of the sixth day says: This teaches us that the plants commenced to grow but stopped just as they were about to break through the soil, until Adam came and prayed for rain for them; and when rain fell they sprouted forth. ,This teaches you that the Holy One, blessed be He, longs for the prayers of the righteous.
