Do you not know this from of old, ever since man was placed upon earth,

For since ancient times they have not heard, nor been obedient. Eye has not seen any god besides You, who works for him who waits for Him.

as He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets since the world began,

And there were noises and thunderings and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake as had not occurred since men came to be on the earth.
