who does great things that can't be fathomed, marvelous things without number;
10
He does great things past finding out; yes, marvelous things without number.
7
"Can you fathom the mystery of God? Or can you probe the limits of the Almighty?
8
They are high as heaven. What can you do? They are deeper than Sheol . What can you know?
9
Its measure is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.
14
Behold, these are but the outskirts of his ways. How small a whisper do we hear of him! But the thunder of his power who can understand?"
13
Why do you strive against him, because he doesn't give account of any of his matters?
19
Teach us what we shall tell him, for we can't make our case by reason of darkness.
23
We can't reach the Almighty. He is exalted in power. In justice and great righteousness, he will not oppress.
6
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God. Your judgments are like a great deep. Yahweh, you preserve man and animal.
5
Many, Yahweh, my God, are the wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are toward us. They can't be declared back to you. If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.
19
Your way was through the sea; your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.
5
How great are your works, Yahweh! Your thoughts are very deep.
2
Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
8
Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his wonderful works to the children of men!
9
For he satisfies the longing soul. He fills the hungry soul with good.
10
Some sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron,
11
because they rebelled against the words of God , and condemned the counsel of the Most High.
12
Therefore he brought down their heart with labor. They fell down, and there was none to help.
13
Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.

15
Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his wonderful works to the children of men!
16

17
Fools are afflicted because of their disobedience, and because of their iniquities.
18
Their soul abhors all kinds of food. They draw near to the gates of death.

20
He sends his word, and heals them, and delivers them from their graves.
21
Let them praise Yahweh for his loving kindness, for his wonderful works to the children of men!
22
Let them offer the sacrifices of thanksgiving, and declare his works with singing.
23
Those who go down to the sea in ships, who do business in great waters;
24
These see Yahweh's works, and his wonders in the deep.
25
For he commands, and raises the stormy wind, which lifts up its waves.
26
They mount up to the sky; they go down again to the depths. Their soul melts away because of trouble.
27
They reel back and forth, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end.

He turns rivers into a desert, water springs into a thirsty ground,
34
and a fruitful land into a salt waste, for the wickedness of those who dwell in it.
35
He turns a desert into a pool of water, and a dry land into water springs.
36
There he makes the hungry live, that they may prepare a city to live in,
37
sow fields, plant vineyards, and reap the fruits of increase.
38
He blesses them also, so that they are multiplied greatly. He doesn't allow their livestock to decrease.
39
Again, they are diminished and bowed down through oppression, trouble, and sorrow.
40
He pours contempt on princes, and causes them to wander in a trackless waste.
41
Yet he lifts the needy out of their affliction, and increases their families like a flock.
42
The upright will see it, and be glad. All the wicked will shut their mouths.
43
Whoever is wise will pay attention to these things. They will consider the loving kindnesses of Yahweh.
3
As the heavens for height, and the earth for depth, so the hearts of kings are unsearchable.
11
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in their hearts, yet so that man can't find out the work that God has done from the beginning even to the end.
35
All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he does according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or ask him, What are you doing?
4
Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?
23
and that he might make known the riches of his glory on vessels of mercy, which he prepared beforehand for glory,
33
Oh the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past tracing out!
7
in whom we have our redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,
7
that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus;
8
To me, the very least of all saints, was this grace given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ,
10
to the intent that now through the assembly the manifold wisdom of God might be made known to the principalities and the powers in the heavenly places,
16
that he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inward man;
18
may be strengthened to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
27
to whom God was pleased to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory;
2
that their hearts may be comforted, they being knit together in love, and gaining all riches of the full assurance of understanding, that they may know the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,
3
in whom are all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge hidden.
Le plan de Dieu pour le salut des pécheurs, qui s'est déroulé de degré en degré aux yeux de l'apôtre, pénètre tellement son cœur d'étonnement et d'adoration, qu'il est contraint de donner essor à ses sentiments.
Il le fait dans un chant de louanges, dont les sublimes accents embrassent les hauteurs des cieux et les profondeurs de l'essence divine. Son regard plonge dans un abîme ; ô profondeur ! Il découvre d'abord la richesse de Dieu, c'est-à-dire, probablement, l'abondance des moyens qu'il a d'atteindre son but : le salut de l'homme déchu ; puis la sagesse de Dieu qui conçut le plan de la rédemption, (1Corinthiens 2.7) enfin la connaissance qui lui permet de discerner les conditions de son exécution et détermine à l'avance les voies et les moyens de l'exécuter.
Quelques-uns considèrent le mot richesse comme un complément qualificatif de profondeur : O profondeur de richesse, c'est-à-dire : "O profondes richesses," et de la sagesse et de la connaissance.
Pour admettre cette construction, il faudrait pouvoir regarder comme inauthentique le et devant de la sagesse (plusieurs témoins occidentaux du texte l'omettent). Si on le maintient, la coordination des trois compléments : richesse, sagesse, connaissance, semble s'imposer.
- Les jugements de Dieu, qu'il exerce même sur les siens pour les éprouver et les mûrir en vue de la vie éternelle, sont insondables. ils présentent souvent à l'esprit borné de l'homme des mystères qu'il ne peut scruter jusqu'au fond.
Ses voies enfin, par les quelles il conduit l'humanité et poursuit l'exécution de ses desseins, sont incompréhensibles, impénétrables (grec on n'en peut suivre les traces.)
Ceux qui sont vraiment conscients de leurs limites, face à cette Majesté divine, sont les plus aptes à mesurer leur propre faiblesse. La Sagesse divine est non seulement insondable, mais elle est aussi pourvue de diverses richesses : on y rencontre avec abondance, tout ce qui est précieux, qui a de la valeur.
Les pensées du Seigneur sont parfaites : elles ne disposent pas uniquement de profondeur et de hauteur, mais aussi de largeur et de longueur, Eph 3:18.
Il y a une distance considérable et une grande disproportion entre Dieu et l'homme, entre le Créateur et la créature, nous fermant ainsi pour toujours la connaissance de Ses voies. Quel homme apprendra à Dieu, comment gouverner le monde ?
L'apôtre admire la souveraineté des délibérations divines. Tout ce qui est dans le ciel et sur la terre, en particulier, ce qui concerne notre salut, et ce qui nous procure la paix, a été créé par Dieu, par Sa Providence ; en final, toutes choses reviendront à Lui. Tout vient de Dieu : Il est la « Source » et la « Fontaine d’eau vive » de tout ce qui existe, au travers de Christ. Ceci concerne toutes les relations entre Dieu et Ses créatures ; si tout est de Lui, et à travers Lui, tout doit être à Lui, et pour Lui.
Dans tout ce qui est fait, la Gloire de Dieu doit en être la finalité : adorons Le, en particulier quand nous mentionnons Sa Providence et Ses œuvres. Dans le ciel, les saints ne se querellent jamais... Ils louent le Seigneur en permanence !
