²¹ For thy word's sake, and according to thine own heart, hast thou wrought all this greatness, to make thy servant know it.

¹⁹ God is not a man, that he should lie, Neither the son of man, that he should repent: Hath he said, and will he not do it? Or hath he spoken, and will he not make it good?

⁹ making known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him
