16. As the shining sun is clear to all,so the glory of the Lord fills all his works;
17. Yet even God’s holy ones must failin recounting the wonders of the Lord,Though God has given his hosts the strengthto stand firm before his glory.
18. He searches out the abyss and penetrates the heart;their secrets he understands.For the Most High possesses all knowledge,and sees from of old the things that are to come.
