10 Behold, the Lord God shall come [a]with a strong hand,
And (A)His arm shall rule for Him;
Behold, (B)His reward is with Him,
And His [b]work before Him.
11 He will (C)feed His flock like a shepherd;
He will gather the lambs with His arm,
And carry them in His bosom,
And gently lead those who are with young.

12 (D)Who has measured the [c]waters in the hollow of His hand,
Measured heaven with a [d]span
And calculated the dust of the earth in a measure?
Weighed the mountains in scales
And the hills in a balance?
