9 Go up upon a high mountain, thou that bringest good tidings to Zion; lift up thy voice with thy strength, thou that bringest good tidings to Jerusalem: lift ye up (your voice), fear not; say thou to the cities of Judah, Behold your God.

10 Behold, the Lord cometh with strength, and his arm with power: behold, his reward (is) with him, and his work before him.

11 As a shepherd shall he tend his flock, and with his arm shall he gather lambs, and shall comfort those with young.

12 Who measured the water with his hand, and the heaven with a span, and all the earth with a handful? Who hath weighed the mountains with a scale, and the valleys with a balance?

13 Who hath understood the mind of the Lord, and who was his fellow-counsellor, that shall teach him?

14 Or with whom shared be his counsel, and he taught him? or who showed him judgment? or who showed him the way of understanding? or who gave to him at the first, and it shall be rendered him again? ’

16 And Lebanon is not sufficient for burning, and all the (four footed) beasts are not sufficient for a (whole) burnt offering.
