O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out!
Oh wow, God's wisdom and knowledge run so incredibly deep! His decisions are beyond what we could ever figure out, and his ways are completely beyond our understanding.
God's mind is on a whole other level that we'll never fully reach, and that's actually beautiful.
