35 If the sun can do this, it is certainly great. But truth is greater and stronger than all of these things.
36 Everyone on earth honors truth; heaven praises it; all creation trembles in awe before it.“There is not the slightest injustice in truth.
37 You will find injustice in wine, the emperor, women, all human beings, in all they do, and in everything else. There is no truth in them; they are unjust and they will perish.
38 But truth endures and is always strong; it will continue to live and reign forever.
39 Truth shows no partiality or favoritism; it does what is right, rather than what is unjust or evil. Everyone approves what truth does;
40 its decisions are always fair. Truth is strong, royal, powerful, and majestic forever. Let all things praise the God of truth!”
41 When Zerubbabel had finished speaking, all the people shouted, “Truth is great—there is nothing stronger!”
