NETBible

you will be blessed, you who plant seed by all the banks of the streams, you who let your ox and donkey graze.

NET Notes

tn Heb “by all the waters.”

tn Heb “who set free the foot of the ox and donkey”; NIV “letting your cattle and donkeys range free.”

sn This verse seems to anticipate a time when fertile land is available to cultivate and crops are so abundant that the farm animals can be allowed to graze freely.
