“God understands its way, and he knows its place.
24 Na'ankure maka zama ama mopamofo agofetu'ma me'nea zantamina Anumzamo'a keharu huno negeno, monamofo fenka kazigama me'nea zantamina nege.
For he looks to the ends of the earth, and sees under the whole sky.
25 Anumzamo'a zaho'mofona zaho'ma erisnia hankave'a avamente refko huno nemino, hampompima me'neno ko'ma arania zana tina, avamente refko huno Anumzamo'a ante'ne.

When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder,
27 Hagi ana'ma huteno'a Anumzamo'a knare antahi'zama rezagane so'e huno keno erinte fatgo nehuno, knare huno me'ne huno nehie.
then he saw it, and declared it. He established it, yes, and searched it out.
28 Ana nehuno Anumzamo'a amanage huno vahe'motagura hu'ne, Ra Anumzamofoma koro'ma huntezana, knare antahi'zana megeno, havi avu'ava zamofoma amefi'ma humisnanana, ama' antahi'zana erigahane hu'ne.
To man he said, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom. To depart from evil is understanding.’”
