35 This is what the Lord says,

he who appoints(A) the sun
    to shine by day,
who decrees the moon and stars
    to shine by night,(B)
who stirs up the sea(C)
    so that its waves roar(D)
    the Lord Almighty is his name:(E)
36 “Only if these decrees(F) vanish from my sight,”
    declares the Lord,
“will Israel(G) ever cease
    being a nation before me.”

37 This is what the Lord says:

“Only if the heavens above can be measured(H)
    and the foundations of the earth below be searched out
will I reject(I) all the descendants of Israel
    because of all they have done,”
declares the Lord.

35 Thus saith the Lord, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The Lord of hosts is his name:

36 If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.

37 Thus saith the Lord; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the Lord.
