    See how high the highest stars are!
¹³ But you say, ‘God knows nothing.
    He cannot judge us through the dark clouds.
¹⁴ Thick clouds cover him so he cannot see us.
    He walks around high up in the sky.’

    Their foundations were washed away by a flood.
¹⁷ They said to God, ‘Leave us alone!

    And fire burns up their wealth.’
