Midras Ayub 37:12: Sifrei Devarim

וְה֤וּא מְסִבּ֨וֹת ׀ מִתְהַפֵּ֣ךְ בתחבולתו [בְּתַחְבּוּלֹתָ֣יו] לְפָעֳלָ֑ם כֹּ֖ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר יְצַוֵּ֓ם ׀ עַל־פְּנֵ֖י תֵבֵ֣ל אָֽרְצָה׃

Dan ia berputar-putar berkeliling menurut rancangan-Nya, untuk melakukan segala yang diperintahkan-Nya kepada mereka di atas muka bumi yang berpenghuni.

Sifrei Devarim

Or, because Eretz Yisrael is surrounded with mountains, I might think that what is revealed (i.e., exposed) drinks (rain), and that what is concealed does not; it is, therefore, written (Devarim 11:11) "From the rain of the heavens you will drink water" — both the revealed and the concealed. And thus is it written (Job 37:11) "Af-Bri (the plenipotentiary of rain) will load the cloud. He (Af-Bri) will scatter the cloud of His rain, and he around (the mountain) (will guide it) with his stratagems." So that clouds surround it and water it from every side.
