2“In truthH551 I knowH3045 that this is soH3651; But howH4100 can a 1personH582 beH6663 inH6663 theH6663 rightH6663 withH5973 GodH410?3IfH518 one wishedH2654 to 2disputeH7378 with Him, He could not answerH6030 Him onceH259 in a thousandH505 times.43WiseH2450 in heartH3824 and 4mightyH533 in strengthH3581, WhoH4310 has 56defiedH7185H413 Him 7withoutH7999 harmH7999?58It is God who removesH6275 the mountainsH2022, and they do not knowH3045 how, WhenH834 He overturnsH2015 them in His angerH639.6It is He who 9shakesH7264 the earthH776 from its placeH4725, And its 10pillarsH5982 trembleH6426;7Who commandsH559 the 11sunH2775 12not to shineH2224, And putsH2856 aH2856 sealH2856 on the starsH3556;8Who aloneH905 13stretchesH5186 outH5186 the heavensH8064, And 1415tramplesH1869 downH1869 the wavesH1116 of the seaH3220;9Who makesH6213 the 16BearH5906, OrionH3685, and the PleiadesH3598, And the 1718constellationsH2315 of the southH8486.10It is He who 19doesH6213 greatH1419 thingsH1419, 20the unfathomableH2714H369H5704, And wondrousH6381 worksH6381 withoutH5704H369 numberH4557.11IfH2005 He were to passH5674 by me, 21I would not seeH7200 Him; Were He to moveH2498 pastH2498 me, I would not perceiveH995 Him.12IfH2005 He were to snatchH2862 awayH2862, whoH4310 could 22restrainH7725 Him? WhoH4310 could sayH559 to Him, ‘23WhatH4100 are You doingH6213?’
