He has compassed the waters with bounds until the end of light and darkness. The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof. He divides the sea with his power, and by his intelligence he smites its pride. By his spirit he has adorned the heavens; his hand has formed the fleeing serpent. Behold, these are parts of his ways; but how little a portion have we heard of him? For the thunder of his power, who shall understand?

That which is crooked cannot be made straight, and that which is lacking cannot be numbered. read more.
