26:21 For look, the Lord is coming out of the place where he lives, 1
to punish the sin of those who live on the earth.
The earth will display the blood shed on it;
it will no longer cover up its slain. 2
42:5 This is what the true God, 3 the Lord, says –
the one who created the sky and stretched it out,
the one who fashioned the earth and everything that lives on it, 4
the one who gives breath to the people on it,
and life to those who live on it: 5
