Verse 6
As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees of lign aloes which the LORD hath planted, and as cedar trees beside the waters.
As the valleys — Which often from a small beginning are spread forth far and wide.
As gardens — Pleasant and fruitful and secured by a fence.
As lign-aloes — An Arabian and Indian tree of a sweet smell, yielding shade and shelter both to man and beast; such is Israel, not only safe themselves, but yielding shelter to all that join themselves to them.
Which the Lord hath planted — Nature, not art.
