[21] Have ye not known?
have ye not heard?
hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood
from the foundations of the earth?

[22] It is he that sitteth upon
the circle of the earth,
and the inhabitants thereof
are as grasshoppers;

that stretcheth out the heavens
as a curtain,
and spreadeth them out
as a tent to dwell in:

[23] That bringeth the princes to nothing;
he maketh the judges of the earth
as vanity.
