The depths also of rivers he hath searched, and hidden things he hath brought forth to light.

Who made a weight for the winds and weighed the waters by measure.
When he gave a law for the rain, and a way for the sounding storms.
Then he saw it, and declared, and prepared, and searched it.
28 Gode da nini osobo bagade dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia da bagade dawa: su hou lamusa: dawa: sea, dilia Hina Godema beda: i galawane nodoma! Amo hou dawa: digima: ne, wadela: i hou fisili, Godema sinidigima!”
And he said to man: Behold the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom: and to depart from evil, is understanding.
