9 Who among all these does not know
That the hand of the Lord has done this,

10 ^aIn whose hand is the¹ life of every living thing,
And the ^bbreath of all mankind? ‡

13 “With Him are ^awisdom and strength,
He has counsel and understanding. ‡

14 If ^aHe breaks a thing down, it cannot be rebuilt;
If He imprisons a man, there can be no release. ‡
