1  ^aGive ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.

  1  ^aHearken, O ye people of my church, saith the voice of him who dwells on high, and whose eyes are upon all men; yea, verily I say: Hearken ye people from afar; and ye that are upon the islands of the sea, listen together.

  1  ^aHear, O ye heavens, and give ear, O earth, and rejoice ye inhabitants thereof, for the Lord is God, and beside him there is no Savior.

  19  And when the Lord saw it, he abhorred them, because of the ^bprovoking of his sons, and of his daughters.
