11 He will take care of his flock like a shepherd;he will gather the lambs togetherand carry them in his arms;he will gently lead their mothers.
12 Can anyone measure the ocean by handfulsor measure the sky with his hands?Can anyone hold the soil of the earth in a cupor weigh the mountains and hills on scales?
13 Can anyone tell the Lord what to do?Who can teach him or give him advice?
14 With whom does God consultin order to know and understandand to learn how things should be done?
15 To the Lord the nations are nothing,no more than a drop of water;the distant islands are as light as dust.
16 All the animals in the forests of Lebanonare not enough for a sacrifice to our God,and its trees are too few to kindle the fire.
17 The nations are nothing at all to him.
