¹⁹ God is not human,^(A) that he should lie,^(B)
    not a human being, that he should change his mind.^(C)
Does he speak and then not act?
    Does he promise^(D) and not fulfill?

⁸ The grass withers and the flowers^(A) fall,
    but the word^(B) of our God endures^(C) forever.^(D)”

¹¹ so is my word^(A) that goes out from my mouth:
    It will not return to me empty,^(B)
but will accomplish what I desire
    and achieve the purpose^(C) for which I sent it.

¹³ if we are faithless,
    he remains faithful,^(A)
    for he cannot disown himself.
