Upon [seeing] meteors, and earthquakes, and lightning, and thunder, and tempests one says: ‘‘Blessed . . . Whose strength and might fill the world.’’ Upon [seeing] mountains, and hills, and seas, and rivers, and deserts, one says: ‘‘Blessed . . . Who makes the work of Creation.’’ R’ Yehudah says: [If] one sees the Great Sea he says: ‘‘Blessed . . . Who made the Great Sea.’’ [But only] when he sees it at intervals. On rains and on [hearing] good tidings, one says: ‘‘Blessed . . . Who is good and does good.’’ And on [hearing] bad tidings, one says: ‘‘Blessed . . . the true Judge.’’
