How happy everyone will be with plenty of water for the crops and safe pasture everywhere for the donkeys and cattle.

Because there is no rain and the ground is dried up, the farmers are sick at heart; they hide their faces.

Now it is planted in the desert, in a dry and waterless land.

The seeds die in the dry earth. There is no grain to be stored, and so the empty granaries are in ruins.

The cattle are bellowing in distress because there is no pasture for them; the flocks of sheep also suffer.
