19 God is not a man, that he might lie,
or a son of man, that he might change his mind.(A)
Does he speak and not act,
or promise and not fulfill?(B)
20 I have indeed received a command to bless;
since he has blessed,[a] I cannot change it.
21 He considers no disaster for Jacob;
he sees no trouble for Israel.[b]
The Lord their God is with them,(C)
and there is rejoicing over the King among them.
