Don't you know? Haven't you heard? Don't you understand the foundations of the earth?

God is enthroned above the earth, and those who live on it are like grasshoppers. 

He stretches out the sky like a canopy

and spreads it out like a tent to live in.

He makes rulers unimportant,

and makes earthly judges worth nothing.

Have have hardly been planted,

They have hardly been sown.

They have hardly taken root in the ground

Then he blows on them and they wither 

and a windstorm sweeps them away like straw.

"To whom, then, can you compare me? Who is my qual?" asks the Holy One

Look at the sky and see.

Who created these things?

Who brings out the stars one by one?

He calls them all by name.

Because of the greatness of his might and the strength of his power, 

not one of them is missing...

Don't you know? Haven't you heard? 

The eternal God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth,

does not grow tired or become weary.

His understanding is beyond reach.

He gives strength to those who are weak.

Even young people grow tired and become weary,

and young men will stumble and fall.

Yet the strength of those who wait with hope in the Lord will be renewed.

They will soar on wings like eagles

they will run and won't become weary

they will walk and won't grow tired.

Isaiah 40:21-26, 28-31
