He commands what he wants to be done on the earth,
and his words quickly come to the place to which he sends them.
He sends snow which covers the ground like a white wool blanket [SIM],

He sends hail down like ◄pebbles/tiny stones►;
when that happens, ◄it is very difficult to endure because the air becomes very cold./who can endure because the air becomes very cold?► [RHQ]

Then the hail melts and the water flows into the streams.Psa 33:9

the other nations do not know his laws.
