By the word of his majesty did he establish all things, and by his word can he destroy them.

Who shall say to him what hast thou done, or who shall resist the might of his strength? When he will, and as he will, he will do all things, and none of his decrees shall pass away.

All is in his sight and nothing has escaped from his counsel,

since The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament

telleth his handiwork, day uttereth speech unto day, and night telleth knowledge to night. And there are neither words nor speeches, and their voices are not heard.
