21
whose throne is beyond measure and whose glory is beyond comprehension, before whom the hosts of angels stand trembling
22
and at whose command they are changed to wind and fire, whose word is sure and whose utterances are certain, whose ordinance is strong and whose command is terrible,
23
whose look dries up the depths and whose indignation makes the mountains melt away, and whose truth is established for ever --
24
hear, O Lord, the prayer of thy servant, and give ear to the petition of thy creature; attend to my words.
25
For as long as I live I will speak, and as long as I have understanding I will answer.
