- There:
- Or, "They have no speech, nor words, nor is their voice heard; yet into all the earth hath gone out their sound, and to the extremity of the world their words." The Hebrew, kav, rendered, line, like the Greek φθογγος, by which the LXX (who are followed by St. Paul), render it, no doubt signifies the sound as well as the cord which emits it. The Vulgate, Jerome, and Symmachus, render it to the same purpose. "And lest¹ thou lift upª° thine eyesª unto heaven,ª and when thou seestª°¹ the sun,ª and the moon,ª and the stars,ª [even] all¹ the hostª of heaven,ª shouldest be drivenª° to worshipª° them, and serveª° them, which¹ the LORDª thy Godª hath dividedª°¹ unto all¹ nationsª under¹ the whole¹ heaven.ª" {Deu 4:19}
