He binds up the waters in His thick clouds, yet the clouds are not split open under them.

I have dug and drunk water, and with the sole of my feet I have dried up all the rivers of the besieged places.

who says to the deep, Be dry, and I will dry up your rivers;

I will go before you, and make the high places level and straight. I will break in pieces the gates of bronze, and cut the iron bars in two.

And I will give you the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that you may know that I, Jehovah, who calls you by your name, am the God of Israel.

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each one's praise will be from God.
