Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son’s name, if thou canst tell?
Lest I be full, and deny thee , and say, Who is the LORD ? or lest I be poor, and steal, and take the name of my God in vain .
