(A)God is wise in heart and mighty in strength.
Who has hardened himself against Him and prospered?
He removes the mountains, and they do not know
When He overturns them in His anger;
He (B)shakes the earth out of its place,
And its (C)pillars tremble;
He commands the sun, and it does not rise;
He seals off the stars;
(D)He alone spreads out the heavens,
And [a]treads on the [b]waves of the sea;
(E)He made [c]the Bear, Orion, and the Pleiades,
And the chambers of the south;
10 (F)He does great things past finding out,
Yes, wonders without number.

You who (A)turn justice to wormwood,
And lay righteousness to rest in the earth!”

He made the (B)Pleiades and Orion;
He turns the shadow of death into morning
(C)And makes the day dark as night;
He (D)calls for the waters of the sea
And pours them out on the face of the earth;
(E)The Lord is His name.
