3 For I shall pour out water upon the thirsty one,+ and trickling streams upon the dry place.+ I shall pour out my spirit upon your seed,*+ and my blessing upon your descendants.

23 And, YOU sons of Zion, be joyful and rejoice in Jehovah YOUR God;*+ for he will be bound to give YOU the autumn rain* in right measure,+ and he will bring down upon YOU people a downpour, autumn rain and spring rain, as at the first.+
