7 For you alone are God, and you created all of us, as the scripture says.
8 You give life and provide arms and legs to the body formed in the womb, where it is kept safe in the elements of fire and water. The body which you form is carried in the womb for nine months,
9 and you alone provide safety for the protecting womb and the protected body. Then when the womb delivers what was created in it,
10 your command produces milk from the breasts of the human body.
11 The infant you created is fed in this way for a while, and then you continue to provide your mercy.
12 You bring a person up in your righteousness, teach him your Law, and discipline him with your wisdom.
13 You are his Creator, and, as you wish, you can take away his life or allow him to live.
