[Isa. 28:29]to whom belong wisdom and might.
21 [ver. 9; ch. 7:25] He changes times and seasons;
[ch. 4:17;5:20;Job 12:18;Ps. 75:7;Rom. 13:1] he removes kings and sets up kings;
See ch. 1:17he gives wisdom to the wise

Job 12:22;[Ps. 25:14;139:12;Amos 4:13;Heb. 4:13] he knows what is in the darkness,
1 Tim. 6:16;James 1:17;1 John 1:5;[John 1:4,5]and the light dwells with him.
23 To you, O Deut. 26:7;1 Chr. 12:17;29:18God of my fathers,
[ch. 6:10] I give thanks and praise,
for [ver. 20]; See ch. 1:17you have given me wisdom and might,
and have now made known to me what [ver. 18]we asked of you,
for you have made known to us the king’s matter."
