15 In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.
15 When a king's face brightens, it means life; his favor is like a rain cloud in spring.
15 In the light of a king's face there is life, and his favor is like the clouds that bring the spring rain.
15 Good-tempered leaders invigorate lives; they're like spring rain and sunshine.
15 In the light of the king's face is life, And his favor is like a cloud of the latter rain.
15 When the king smiles, there is life; his favor refreshes like a spring rain.
