God's Uncontrollable Sovereignty

13

With him is wisedome and strength: he hath counsell and vnderstanding.

14

Beholde, he will breake downe, and it can not be built: he shutteth a man vp, and he can not be loosed.

15

Beholde, he withholdeth the waters, and they drie vp: but when he sendeth them out, they destroy the earth.

16

With him is strength and wisedome: hee that is deceiued, and that deceiueth, are his.

17

He causeth the counsellers to goe as spoyled, and maketh the iudges fooles.

18

He looseth the collar of Kings, and girdeth their loynes with a girdle.

19

He leadeth away the princes as a pray, and ouerthroweth the mightie.

20

He taketh away the speach from the faithfull counsellers, and taketh away the iudgement of the ancient.

21

He powreth contempt vpon princes, and maketh the strength of the mightie weake.

22

He discouereth the deepe places from their darkenesse, and bringeth foorth the shadowe of death to light.

23

He increaseth the people, and destroyeth them: he inlargeth the nations, and bringeth them in againe.

24

He taketh away the heartes of the that are the chiefe ouer the people of the earth, and maketh them to wander in the wildernes out of the way.

25

They grope in the darke without light: and he maketh the to stagger like a drunken man.
