The everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary;
There is no searching of his understanding.
He giveth power to the faint; and to him that hath no might he increaseth strength.
Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:
But they that wait for the Lord shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings as eagles;
They shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.
SELECTION 5
GOD IN NATURE
And the firmament showeth his handiwork.
Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night showeth
knowledge.
There is no speech nor language; their voice is not heard.
Their line is gone out through all the earth,
And their words to the end of the world.
In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun, which is as a bride-groom coming out of his chamber,
And rejoiceth as a strong man to run his course.
His going forth is from the end of the heavens,
And his circuit unto the ends of it; and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
Who hast set thy glory upon the heavens!
Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou established strength, because of thine adversaries,
That thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
What is man, that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him?
For thou hast made him but little lower than God, and crownest him with glory and honor.
