Ps. ix. 17, 18.

Again:  “Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelleth on high, and yet looketh on the humble things that are in heaven and on earth!—who raiseth up the needy from off the ground, and out of the dunghill exalteth the poor; that He may set him with the princes of His people,”3947

saith the Lord. Impious indeed, beyond all impiety, are these men, who assert that the Maker of heaven and earth, the only God Almighty, besides whom there is no God, was produced by means of a defect, which itself sprang from another defect, so that, according to them, He was the product of the third defect.2874

In like manner do these men, the more they seem to excel others in wisdom, and waste their strength by drawing the bow too tightly,2875

2875 i.e., by aiming at what transcends their ability, they fall into absurdity, as a bow is broken by bending it too far.
