Did not He that made me in the womb make him? Yea, prepare us in the womb doth One.
`Yod.' Thy hands made me and establish me, Cause me to understand, and I learn Thy commands.

Thus said Jehovah, thy Maker, and thy Former, From the womb He doth help thee; Fear not, my servant Jacob, And Jeshurun, whom I have fixed on.
Hearken unto Me, O house of Jacob, And all the remnant of Israel, Who are borne from the belly, Who are carried from the womb,
`Before I form thee in the belly, I have known thee; and before thou comest forth from the womb I have separated thee, a prophet to nations I have made thee.'
If the whole body `were' an eye, where the hearing? if the whole hearing, where the smelling?
