| It is he that buildeth his stories in the heaven, and hath founded his troop in the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name. | Who builds his upper chambers in the heavens and founds his vault upon the earth; who calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out upon the surface of the earth— the Lord is his name. |
| Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. | For the Lord God does nothing without revealing his secret to his servants the prophets. |
