¹⁶ who alone has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light; whom no man has seen, nor can see: to whom be honor and eternal power. Amen.

⁴ The King's strength also loves justice. You do establish equity. You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.

⁵ "Behold, God is mighty, and doesn't despise anyone. He is mighty in strength of understanding.

⁴ God who is wise in heart, and mighty in strength: Who has hardened himself against him, and prospered?

⁷ "Can you fathom the mystery of God? Or can you probe the limits of the Almighty?

³³ Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!

²¹ Declare you, and bring [it] forth; yes, let them take counsel together: who has shown this from ancient time? who has declared it of old? Haven't I, Yahweh? and there is no God else besides me, a just God and a Savior; there is no one besides me.

⁹ In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bore them, and carried them all the days of old.

³² For though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.

³³ For he does not afflict willingly, nor grieve the children of men.

²³ Have I any pleasure in the death of the wicked? says the Lord Yahweh; and not rather that he should return from his way, and live?

³² For I have no pleasure in the death of him who dies, says the Lord Yahweh: therefore turn yourselves, and live.

¹³ Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For yours is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen.'

²² Turning to the disciples, he said, "All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father, and who the Father is, except the Son, and he to whomever the Son desires to reveal him."

¹⁰ For they indeed, for a few days, punished us as seemed good to them; but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.

¹¹ He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in their hearts, yet so that man can't find out the work that God has done from the beginning even to the end.

³ I have not learned wisdom, Neither do I have the knowledge of the Holy One.

⁴ Who has ascended up into heaven, and descended? Who has gathered the wind in his fists? Who has bound the waters in his garment? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is his son's name, if you know?

¹⁹ If it is a matter of strength, behold, he is mighty! If of justice, 'Who,' says he, 'will summon me?'

¹³ "With God is wisdom and might. He has counsel and understanding.

⁷ But now, God, you have surely worn me out. You have made desolate all my company.

⁸ You have shriveled me up. This is a witness against me. My leanness rises up against me, It testifies to my face.

⁹ He has torn me in his wrath, and persecuted me; He has gnashed on me with his teeth: My adversary sharpens his eyes on me.

¹⁰ They have gaped on me with their mouth; They have struck me on the cheek reproachfully. They gather themselves together against me.

¹¹ God delivers me to the ungodly, And casts me into the hands of the wicked.

¹² I was at ease, and he broke me apart. Yes, he has taken me by the neck, and dashed me to pieces. He has also set me up for his target.

¹³ His archers surround me. He splits my kidneys apart, and does not spare. He pours out my gall on the ground.

¹⁴ He breaks me with breach on breach. He runs on me like a giant.

¹⁵ I have sewed sackcloth on my skin, And have thrust my horn in the dust.

¹⁶ My face is red with weeping. Deep darkness is on my eyelids.

¹⁷ Although there is no violence in my hands, And my prayer is pure.

¹⁴ Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways. How small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?"

²⁶ Behold, God is great, and we don't know him. The number of his years is unsearchable.

¹⁹ Teach us what we shall tell him; For we can't make our case by reason of darkness.

⁵ For his anger is but for a moment; His favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may stay for the night, But joy comes in the morning.

⁵ Your loving kindness, Yahweh, is in the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

⁶ Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. Yahweh, you preserve man and animal.

⁷ How precious is your loving kindness, God! The children of men take refuge under the shadow of your wings.

¹¹ God has spoken once, Twice I have heard this, That power belongs to God.

⁶ Who by his power forms the mountains, Having armed yourself with strength;

³ Tell God, "How awesome are your deeds! Through the greatness of your power, your enemies submit themselves to you.

¹ Yahweh reigns! He is clothed with majesty! Yahweh is armed with strength. The world also is established. It can't be moved.

⁶ Who made heaven and earth, The sea, and all that is in them; Who keeps truth forever;

⁷ Who executes justice for the oppressed; Who gives food to the hungry. Yahweh frees the prisoners.

³ Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert righteousness?
