^3 (A)Therefore the showers have been withheld,
    and the spring rain has not come;
yet you have ^(B)the forehead of a whore;
    you refuse to be ashamed.

^23 (A)“Be glad, O children of Zion,
    and ^(B)rejoice in the Lord your God,
for he has given ^(C)the early rain for your vindication;
    he has poured down for you abundant rain,
    ^(D)the early and ^(E)the latter rain, as before.
