NETBible

“Is not God on high in heaven?¹ And see² the lofty stars,³ how high they are!

NET Notes

¹tn This reading preserves the text as it is. The nouns “high” and “heavens” would then be taken as adverbial accusatives of place (see GKC 373-74 §118.g).

²tn The parallel passage in Isa 40:26-27, as well as the context here, shows that the imperative is to be retained here. The LXX has “he sees.”

³tn Heb “head of the stars.”
