3 For who can examine his greatness?
4 And who will announce the power of his magnitude? Or who would be able to describe his mercy?
5 There is no diminishing, and no increasing, and there is no discovering, the greatness of God.
6 When man has reached the end, then he will begin. And when he ceases, he will be in need.
7 What is man, and what is his grace? And what is his good, or what is his evil?
8 The number of the days of men are as many as one hundred years. Like a drop of water in the ocean, so they are considered to be. And like a grain of sand on the shore, so do these few years compare to the days of all time.
9 For this reason, God is patient with them, and he pours forth his mercy upon them.
