- 5. He that lifted the axes vpon the thicke trees, was renowmed, as one, that brought a thing to perfection:

- 7. They haue cast thy Sanctuarie into the fire, and rased it to the grounde, and haue defiled the dwelling place of thy Name.
- 8. They saide in their hearts, Let vs destroy them altogether: they haue burnt all the Synagogues of God in the land.

- 16. The day is thine, and the night is thine: thou hast prepared the light and the sunne.
- 17. Thou hast set all the borders of the earth: thou hast made summer and winter.
