"Shall the one who contends with the Almighty correct [Him?] He who rebukes God, let him answer it."

Who has directed the Spirit of the LORD, Or [as] His counselor has taught Him?

With whom did He take counsel, and [who] instructed Him, And taught Him in the path of justice? Who taught Him knowledge, And showed Him the way of understanding?

" Woe to him who strives with his Maker! [Let] the potsherd [strive] with the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to him who forms it, 'What are you making?' Or shall your handiwork [say,] 'He has no hands'?

"For who has known the mind of the LORD? Or who has become His counselor?"

For "who has known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?" But we have the mind of Christ.

Should one who hates justice govern? Will you condemn [Him who is] most just?

Yet He is not partial to princes, Nor does He regard the rich more than the poor; For they [are] all the work of His hands.

Who [is] like the LORD our God, Who dwells on high,

Who humbles Himself to behold [The things that are] in the heavens and in the earth?

If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent perversion of justice and righteousness in a province, do not marvel at the matter; for high official watches over high official, and higher officials are over them.

[It is] He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants [are] like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.

He brings the princes to nothing; He makes the judges of the earth useless.

Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?

For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast [them] down to hell and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment;

And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day;

Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, having the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.

and he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, so that he should deceive the nations no more till the thousand years were finished. But after these things he must be released for a little while.

And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is [the Book] of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.

Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
