Ils n’ont pas dit en leur cœur: "Adorons donc l’Éternel, notre Dieu, qui dispense la pluiela pluie de l’automne et du printempsen temps voulu, qui nous réserve régulièrement les semaines déterminées pour la moisson."
Duties of the Heart
One of the most important subjects on which you should reflect is the wonderful gift of G-d to living creatures and plants - the rain, which besides falling in its due season, descends in showers when needed. As Scripture said, (Yirmiya 14:22) "Are there any among the vanities of the nations that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers? are You not He, O L-ord our G-d? therefore we will hope unto You: for You have made all these things" (Yirmiya 5:24) "Neither say they in their heart: Let us now fear the L-ord, our G-d, that gives rain, both the former and the latter, in due season; that reserves for us the appointed weeks of the harvest." The importance of the rain, you will find also emphasized in the text (Job 5:9-11) "Who does great things and unsearchable; marvelous things without number: Who gives rain upon the earth and sends water upon the fields; so that He sets upon high those that are low, and those that mourn are exalted to safety."
