I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor anything taken from it; and God hath done it, that men should fear before him.
When he giveth quietness, who then can condemn?\par\tab And when he hideth his face, who then can behold him?\par\tab Alike whether {\i it be done} unto a nation, or unto a man:
And that he would show thee the secrets of wisdom!\par\tab For he is manifold in understanding.\par\tab Know therefore that God exacteth of thee less than thine iniquity deserveth.\par
and all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?
I turned about, and my heart {\i was set} to know and to search out, and to seek wisdom and the reason {\i of things}, and to know that wickedness is folly, and that foolishness is madness.
