Psalms 84:6

As they walk through the valley of the baker trees (the valley of tears),
they make it a source of water,
the rains (the early autumn rains, or the teacher) cover them with blessings (they become water reservoirs).
[The verse is multi-layered. The Hebrew word baka can refer to 3-4 meter tall balsam trees whose fragrant resin was used to make balm. The word is similar to the verb beki, which is used for "to weep" in the Bible. The reason may be the connection to how the trees "weep" their resin from the bark. The phrase can be interpreted figuratively as a time of sorrow, a valley of tears. However, if it is a real place, the balsam trees are mentioned in connection with the Valley of Rephaim near Jerusalem, see 2 Sam. 5:22–24; 1 Chron. 14:13–16. In that valley, David won victory over the Philistines. The Israelites attacked from the place where the terebinth trees stood, while the Lord made the sound from the tops of the terebinth trees sound like an army that frightened the Philistines. The Valley of Rephaim is the valley that leads up to the last stretch to Jerusalem from the southwest, the last stage before the goal. The association with how the Lord helps the pilgrim on his way to the temple and the tears become a source of joy fits well. The word for the early autumn rains, Hebrew moreh, also means teacher. The last word is berakhot, blessings, which is similar to berekhot (water collections), and a nice parallel with springs.]
