Psalms 144:13 [When] our garners are full, affording all manner of store, [And] our sheep bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields;

Psalms 144:14 [When] our oxen are well laden; [When there is] no breaking in, and no going forth, And no outcry in our streets:

Psalms 144:15 Happy is the people that is in such a case; [Yea], happy is the people whose God is Jehovah. Psalm 145 [A] [Psalm] [of] praise; of David.
