27In this hope then let our souls be bound to him who is faithful in his promises and righteous in his judgments. 2He who has commanded not to lie shall much more not be a liar himself; for nothing is impossible with God save to lie. 3Let therefore faith in him be kindled again in us, and let us consider that all things are near him. 4By the word of his majesty did he establish all things, and by his word can he destroy them. 5“Who shall say to him what hast thou done, or who shall resist the might of his strength?” When he will, and as he will, he will do all things, and none of his decrees shall pass away. 6All is in his sight and nothing has escaped from his counsel, 7since “The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament telleth his handiwork, day uttereth speech unto day, and night telleth knowledge to night. And there are neither words nor speeches, and their voices are not heard.”
