He commands the sun, and it does not rise; He seals off the stars;
8
He alone spreads out the heavens, And treads on the waves of the sea;
9
He made the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades, And the chambers of the south;
10
He does great things past finding out, Yes, wonders without number.
11
If He goes by me, I do not see Him; If He moves past, I do not perceive Him;
12
If He takes away, who can hinder Him? Who can say to Him, 'What are You doing?'
13
God will not withdraw His anger, The allies of the proud lie prostrate beneath Him.
14
"How then can I answer Him, And choose my words to reason with Him?
15
For though I were righteous, I could not answer Him; I would beg mercy of my Judge.
16
If I called and He answered me, I would not believe that He was listening to my voice.
17
For He crushes me with a tempest, And multiplies my wounds without cause.
