Psalms 84:6

Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pools.

KJV

Numquid in æternum irasceris nobis ? aut extendes iram tuam a generatione in generationem ?

Vulgate

μὴ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ὀργισθήσῃ ἡμῖν; ἢ διατενεῖς τὴν ὀργήν σου ἀπὸ γενεᾶς εἰς γενεάν;

LXX

Passing through the valley of Weeping they make it a place of springs; Yea, the early rain covereth it with blessings.
