4 Who went up to heaven, and cometh down? Who hath gathered the wind in his fists? Who hath bound waters in a garment? Who established all ends of the earth? What is His name? and what His son's name? Surely thou knowest! 5 Every saying of God is tried, A shield He is to those trusting in Him. 6 Add not to His words, lest He reason with thee, And thou hast been found false.
