13 Surely mine hand hath laid the foundation of the earth, and my right hand hath spanned the heavens: when I call them, [b]they stand up together.

14 All you, assemble yourselves, and hear: which among them hath declared these things? The Lord hath loved [c]him, he will do his will in Babel, and his arm shall be against the Chaldeans.
