25 I will impart discipline precisely[a]
    and declare knowledge accurately.

26 When the Lord created[b] his works from the beginning,
    and, in making them, determined their boundaries,

    and their dominion[c] for all generations.
They neither hunger nor grow weary,
    and they do not abandon their tasks.
