⁴ But let me say this: No one RHQ has ascended to heaven to find out what God is like and returned to tell us. No one RHQ has gathered/held the wind in his hand. No one RHQ has wrapped the water in the ocean in a piece of cloth, and no one RHQ has established the boundaries of the earth. If you know who has done those things, tell me RHQ his name, and the names of his children SAR! But you do not know who has done those things, so you cannot speak with authority about what God is like.
