37. And sow fields and plant vineyards,That they may yield a fruitful harvest.
38. He also blesses them, and they multiply greatly;And He does not let their cattle decrease.
39. When they are diminished and brought lowThrough oppression, affliction, and sorrow,
40. He pours contempt on princes,And causes them to wander in the wilderness where there is no way;
41. Yet He sets the poor on high, far from affliction,And makes their families like a flock.
42. The righteous see it and rejoice,And all iniquity stops its mouth.
43. Whoever is wise will observe these things,And they will understand the lovingkindness of the Lord.
