⁸ For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
    neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord.
^9 (A)For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
    so are my ways higher than your ways
    and my thoughts than your thoughts.

^4 (A)From of old no one has heard
    or perceived by the ear,
^(B)no eye has seen a God besides you,
    who acts for those who wait for him.
