³⁵ This is what the Lord says,
He who ^(A)gives the sun for light by day
And the ^[a]fixed order of the moon and the stars for light by night,
Who ^(B)stirs up the sea so that its waves roar—
^(C)The Lord of armies is His name:
³⁶ “^(D)If ^[b]this fixed order departs
From Me,” declares the Lord,
“Then the descendants of Israel also will ^(E)cease
To be a nation before Me ^[c]forever.”
³⁷ This is what the Lord says:
“^(F)If the heavens above can be measured
And the foundations of the earth searched out below,
Then I will also ^(G)reject all the descendants of Israel
For everything that they have done,” declares the Lord.
