¹⁹ God `is' not a man -- and lieth, And a son of man -- and repenteth! Hath He said -- and doth He not do `it'? And spoken -- and doth He not confirm it?

¹⁸ that through two immutable things, in which `it is' impossible for God to lie, a strong comfort we may have who did flee for refuge to lay hold on the hope set before `us',

²⁹ for unrepented of `are' the gifts and the calling of God;

²⁹ and also, the Pre-eminence of Israel doth not lie nor repent, for He `is' not a man to be penitent.'

⁶ For I `am' Jehovah, I have not changed, And ye, the sons of Jacob, Ye have not been consumed.

² upon hope of life age-during, which God, who doth not lie, did promise before times of ages,

³ For yet the vision `is' for a season, And it breatheth for the end, and doth not lie, If it tarry, wait for it, For surely it cometh, it is not late.

¹⁷ every good giving, and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the lights, with whom is no variation, or shadow of turning;

³³ the heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words may not pass away.

³⁵ Once I have sworn by My holiness, I lie not to David,

¹⁷ And this is small in Thine eyes, O God, and Thou speakest concerning the house of thy servant afar off, and hast seen me as a type of the man who is on high, O Jehovah God!

⁹ I do not the fierceness of My anger, I turn not back to destroy Ephraim, For God I `am', and not a man. In thy midst the Holy One, and I enter not in enmity,

²⁰ Thou givest truth to Jacob, kindness to Abraham, That thou hast sworn to our fathers, from the days of antiquity!
