Deuteronomy 33:28

28 Israel lives in safety,
the fountain of Jacob is quite secure, ^{▼▼ Heb “all alone.” The idea is that such vital resources as water will some day no longer need protection because God will provide security.}
in a land of grain and new wine;
indeed, its heavens ^{▼▼ Or “skies.” The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heaven(s)” or “sky” depending on the context.} rain down dew. ^{▼▼ Or perhaps “drizzle, showers.” See note at Deut 32:2.}
