He who planteth the ear doth He not hear? He who formeth the eye doth He not see?
`Jehovah is in his holy temple: Jehovah--in the heavens is His throne. His eyes see--His eyelids try the sons of men.
Thou hast proved my heart, Thou hast inspected by night, Thou hast tried me, Thou findest nothing; My thoughts pass not over my mouth.
(The face of Jehovah is on doers of evil, To cut off from earth their memorial.)
Doth not God search out this? For He knoweth the secrets of the heart.
And Jehovah saith unto him, `Who appointed a mouth for man? or who appointeth the dumb, or deaf, or open, or blind? is it not I, Jehovah?
Wine is a scorner--strong drink is noisy, And any going astray in it is not wise.
A hearing ear, and a seeing eye, Jehovah hath made even both of them.
Lo, the hand of Jehovah Hath not been shortened from saving, Nor heavy his ear from hearing.
And ye magnify yourselves against Me with your mouth, And have made abundant against Me your words, I--I have heard.
If the whole body were an eye, where the hearing? if the whole hearing, where the smelling?
