- God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
- Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it.

- "Behold, I have received a command to bless; When He has blessed, then I cannot revoke it.
