"Remove not the ancient landmark, which thy fathers have set."

Proverbs 22:28


"Ah Lord God ! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth
by thy great power and stretched out arm,
and there is nothing too hard for thee.

Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh:
is there any thing too hard for me ?
"
Jeremiah 32:17, 27
