16 Hoar frost like ashes scattereth he, [On earth] like wool he snow doth give:
17 Like morsels he casts forth his ice, Who in his [extreme] cold can live?
17 Like morsels he casts forth his ice, Who in his [extream] cold can live?
18 He sendeth out his word of power, And [quickly] melteth them again; ⟨p. 252⟩He makes his wind to blow, and then The waters flow with [plenteous] rain.
19 The Doctrine of his Holy Word To Jacob he doth [clearly] show; His statutes and his judgments he Makes [his own] Israel to know.
