While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.

And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.

Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.

Who can number the clouds in wisdom? or who can stay the bottles of heaven,

Who hath prevented me, that I should repay him? whatsoever is under the whole heaven is mine.
