31. I said, “I’ll water my garden,and I’ll drench my flower bed.And look! The canalturned into a river for me,and my river turned into a sea.

32. I’ll continue to make instructionshine forth like the dawn,and I’ll make things clearto those who are far off.

33. I’ll continue to pour out teachinglike prophecy,and I’ll leave it behindfor future generations.

34. See, I’ve not labored for myself alone,but for all those who seek her.”
