Verse 4.11.47

नानारूपिण्येकरूपा वैरूप्यशतकारिणी ।
नियतिर्नियताकारा पदार्थमधितिष्ठति ॥ ४७ ॥

nānārūpiṇyekarūpā vairūpyaśatakāriṇī |
niyatirniyatākārā padārthamadhitiṣṭhati || 47 ||

There is one eternal law, that presides over all things, and this one law branches forth into many, bringing forth a hundred varieties of effects. The world is a congeries of laws, which are but manifestations of the Almighty power and omniscience. (Therefore says the psalmist:“Blessed is he, who meditates on his laws day and night—O bhi Turat Jehovah hefzo yomam olaila).”
