Thy plants are an orchard of pomegranates, with pleasant fruits; camphire, with spikenard,

Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
