¹² It is the Lord that made the earth by his strength, who set up the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the sky, ¹³ and set abundance of waters in the sky, and brought up clouds from the ends of the earth; he made lightnings for the rain, and brought forth light out of his treasures.

¹² Who has measured the water in his hand, and the heaven with a span, and all the earth in a handful? Who has weighed the mountains in scales, and the forests in a balance?

²⁴ Thus says the Lord that redeems you, and who formed you from the womb, I am the Lord that performs all things: I stretched out the heaven alone, and established the earth.

³ [But] I also have a heart as well as you.

³ Nevertheless I will speak to the Lord, and I will reason before him, if he will.

⁶ But hear you⌃ the reasoning of my mouth, and attend to the judgment of my lips.

²⁰ Whence then is wisdom found? and of what kind is the place of understanding? ²¹ It has escaped the notice of every man, and has been hidden from the birds of the sky.

² Who is this that hides counsel from me, and confines words in [his] heart, and thinks to conceal [them] from me?

³ For who is he that hides counsel from you? or who keeps back his words, and thinks to hide them from you? and who will tell me what I knew not, great and wonderful things which I understood not?

¹⁶ The day is your, and the night is your; you have prepared the sun and the moon. ¹⁷ You have made all the borders of the earth; you have made summer and spring.

²² Arise, O God, plead your cause: remember your reproaches that come from the foolish one all the day.

⁶ I said to the Lord, You are my God; listen, O Lord, to the voice of my supplication.

² For I am the most simple of all men, and there is not in me the wisdom of men. ³ God has taught me wisdom, and I know the knowledge of the holy. ⁴ Who has gone up to heaven, and come down? who has gathered the winds in his bosom? who has wrapped up the waters in a garment? who has dominion of all the ends of the earth? what is his name? or what is the name of his children?

³ And verily they would be heavier than the sand by the seashore: but, as it seems, my words are vain.

⁷ Will you find out the traces of the Lord? or have you come to the end [of that] which the Almighty has made? ⁸ Heaven [is] high; and what will you do? and there are deeper things than those in hell; what do you know?

⁴ Keep me, O Lord, from the hand of the sinner; rescue me from unjust men; who have purposed to overthrow my goings.

⁹ He keeps back the face of his throne, stretching out his cloud upon it.

²⁵ And who prepared a course for the violent rain, and a way for the thunders;

¹¹ Your, O Lord, [is] the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the might: for you are Lord of all things that are in heaven and upon the earth: before your face every king and nation is troubled.

¹⁰ But now look at the wild beasts with you; they eat grass like oxen.

⁴ Sing to the Lord, you⌃ his saints, and give thanks for the remembrance of his holiness.

⁵ Let the peoples, O God, give thanks to you; let all the peoples give thanks to you.

⁷ For I have suffered reproach for your sake; shame has covered my face. ⁸ I became strange to my brethren, and a stranger to my mother's children.

¹² And I will meditate on all your works, and will consider your doings.

³ God shall come from Thaeman, and the Holy One from the dark shady mount Pharan. Pause. ⁴ His excellence covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise. And his brightness shall be as light; [there were] horns in his hands, and he caused a mighty love of his strength. ⁵ Before his face shall go a report, and it shall go forth into the plains, ⁶ the earth stood at his feet and trembled: he [*]saw, and the nations melted away: the mountains were violently burst through, the everlasting hills melted at his everlasting going forth. ⁷ Because of troubles I looked upon the tents of the Ethiopians: the tabernacles also of the land of Madiam shall be dismayed. ⁸ Was you angry, O Lord, with the rivers? or [was] your wrath against the rivers, or your anger against the sea? for you will mount on your horses, and your chariots are salvation. ⁹ Surely you did bend they bow at scepters, says the Lord. Pause. The land of rivers shall be torn asunder. ¹⁰ The nations shall see you and be in pain, [as you do] divide the moving waters: the deep uttered her voice, and raised her form on high. ¹¹ The sun was exalted, and the moon stood still in her course: your darts shall go forth at the light, at the brightness of the gleaming of your arms. ¹² You will bring low the land with threatening, and in wrath you will break down the nations. ¹³ You went forth for the salvation of your people, to save your anointed: you shall bring death on the heads of transgressors; you has brought bands upon [their] neck. Pause. ¹⁴ You did cut asunder the heads of princes with amazement, they shall tremble in it; they shall burst their bridles, [they shall be] as a poor man devouring in secret. ¹⁵ And you do cause your horses to enter the sea, disturbing much water. ¹⁶ I watched, and my belly trembled at the sound of the prayer of my lips, and trembling entered into my bones, and my frame was troubled within me; I will rest in the day of affliction, from going up to the people of my sojourning. ¹⁷ For [though] the fig tree shall bear no fruit, and there shall be no produce on the vines; the labor of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall produce no food: the sheep have failed from the pasture, and there are no oxen at the cribs; ¹⁸ yet I will exult in the Lord, I will joy in God my Saviour. ¹⁹ The Lord God is my strength, and he will perfectly strengthen my feet; he mounts me upon high places, that I may conquer by his song.

³ Will the Lord be unjust when he judges; or will he that has made all things pervert justice?

⁴ For he is wise in mind, and mighty, and great: who has hardened himself against him and endured?

¹⁹ For indeed he is strong in power: who then shall resist his judgment?

¹³ With him are wisdom and power, with him counsel and understanding.

⁷ For if I should speak, I shall not feel the pain of my wound: and if I should be silent, how shall I be wounded the less? ⁸ But now he has made me weary, and a worn-out fool; and you have laid hold of me. ⁹ My falsehood has become a testimony, and has risen up against me: it has confronted me to my face. ¹⁰ In his anger he has cast me down; he has gnashed his teeth upon me: the weapons of his robbers have fallen upon me. ¹¹ He has attacked me with the keen glances of his eyes; with his sharp [spear] he has struck me [down] upon my knees; and they have run upon me with one accord. ¹² For the Lord has delivered me into the hands of unrighteous men, and thrown me upon the ungodly. ¹³ When I was at peace he distracted me: he took me by the hair of the head, and plucked it out: he set me up as a mark. ¹⁴ They surrounded me with spears, aiming at my reins: without sparing [me] they poured out my gall upon the ground. ¹⁵ They overthrew me with fall upon fall: they ran upon me in [their] might. ¹⁶ They sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and my strength has been spent on the ground. ¹⁷ My belly has been parched with wailing, and darkness is on my eyelids.

⁵ But know that the Lord will not cast off an innocent man: being mighty in strength of wisdom,

¹⁹ Therefore teach me, what shall we say to him? and let us cease from saying much.

⁵ Into your hands I will commit my spirit: you have redeemed me, O Lord God of truth.

⁵ Disclose your way to the Lord, and hope in him; and he shall bring [it] to pass. ⁶ And he shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your judgment as the noon-day. ⁷ Submit yourself to the Lord, and supplicate him: fret not yourself because of him that prospers in his way, at the man that does unlawful deeds.

¹¹ But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that swears by him shall be praised; for the mouth of them that speak unjust things has been stopped.

⁶ Who turns the sea into dry land; they shall go through the river on foot; there shall we rejoice in him,

³ Let the nations, O God, give thanks to you; let all the nations give thanks to you.

⁴ Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with hymns; give thanks to him, praise his name.

⁶ The Lord lifts up the meek; but brings sinners down to the ground. ⁷ Begin [the song] with thanksgiving to the Lord; sing praises on the harp to our God:

²¹ If they will declare, let them draw near, that they may know together, who has caused these things to be heard from the beginning: then was it told you. I am God, and there is not another beside me; a just [God] and a Saviour; there is none but me.

⁹ out of all their affliction: not an ambassador, nor a messenger, but himself saved them, because he loved them and spared them: he himself redeemed them, and took them up, and lifted them up all the days of old.

³² CHAPH. For he that has brought down will pity, and [that] according to the abundance of his mercy. ³³ He has not answered [in anger] from his heart, though he has brought low the children of a man.

²³ Shall I at all desire death of the sinner, says the Lord, as I [desire] that he should turn from [his] evil way, and live?

³² For I desire not the death of him that dies, says the Lord.

¹³ who takes the wise in their wisdom, and subverts the counsel of the crafty

¹¹ I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor yet bread to the wise, nor yet wealth to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of knowledge; for time and chance will happen to them all.

²¹ Woe [to them] that are wise in their own conceit, and knowing in their own sight.

⁹ You shall surely die, because you have prophesied in the name of the Lord, saying, This house shall be as Selo, and this city shall be made quite destitute of inhabitants. And all the people assembled against Jeremias in the house of the Lord.

⁵ And afterward shall the children of Israel return, and shall seek the Lord their God, and David their king; and shall be amazed at the Lord and at his goodness in the latter days.
