    and turns the shadow of death into the morning,
    and makes the day dark with night;
    who calls for the waters of the sea,
    and pours them out on the surface of the earth, Yahweh is his name,

    and they abhor him who speaks blamelessly.

    and detest the one who tells the truth.(G)
