2 There is none so holy as the LORD: no, there is none save thou. Neither is there any strength like unto our God. 3 Let go your great boasting of high things, let go out of your mouth that old byword: for the LORD is a God that knoweth all things, and judgeth the thoughts. 4 The bows of the strong are broken: and the weak are endued with strength.
