He who bringeth out his host by number can call them all by name.

The everlasting God, the God who fitted up the ends of the earth, cannot hunger, nor can he be weary; nor can his under standing be searched out. ²⁹ He it is who giveth strength to the hungry and grief to them who have not had sorrow. ³⁰ For youths will hunger and young men be weary, and chosen warriors will become strengthless; ³¹ but they who wait upon God shall have new strength; they shall put forth fresh feathers like eagles; they shall run and not be wearied; they shall march on and shall not faint.
