10 A father gives life to his children, and they cannot ask, ‘Why are you giving me life?’ They cannot question their mother and ask, ‘Why are you giving birth to me?’”

11 The Lord God is the Holy One of Israel. He created Israel, and he says,

“My children, you asked me to show you a sign.
    You told me to show you what I have done.[a]
12 I made the earth,
    and I created the people on it.
I used my own hands to make the skies.
    And I command all the armies in the sky.[b]
