¹¹ See, he goes past me and I see him not: he goes on before, but I have no knowledge of him.

⁸ See, I go forward, but he is not there; and back, but I do not see him;

⁹ I am looking for him on the left hand, but there is no sign of him; and turning to the right, I am not able to see him.

¹⁴ How much less when you say that you do not see him; that the cause is before him, and you are waiting for him.

¹⁶ Who only has life for ever, living in light to which no man may come near; whom no man has seen or is able to see: to whom be honour and power for ever. So be it.

¹⁹ Your way was in the sea, and your road in the great waters; there was no knowledge of your footsteps.
