    Has it not been told you from the beginning?
    Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth?(A)
22 It is he who sits above the circle of the earth,

28 Have you not known? Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
    the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary;

    and the young will fall exhausted,
31 but those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength;
    they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary;
    they shall walk and not faint.(C)
