What one line in the bible to you feel is the most incredible, it can be a scietific line, a prophesy, or a moral code... etc

I like the part in the prophetic books about the enemies of Israel's eyes burning up in their skulls.

My favourite part is Genesis Chapter 48.
Just a note: Verse 16 reads "King" instead of "Angel" in the Shomroni Torah

That would be Zachariah 14.

My favorite is Jeremiah 20:9


ט  וְאָמַרְתִּי לֹא-אֶזְכְּרֶנּוּ, וְלֹא-אֲדַבֵּר עוֹד בִּשְׁמוֹ, וְהָיָה בְלִבִּי כְּאֵשׁ בֹּעֶרֶת, עָצֻר בְּעַצְמֹתָי; וְנִלְאֵיתִי כַּלְכֵל, וְלֹא אוּכָל.  9 And if I say: 'I will not make mention of Him, nor speak any more in His name', then there is in my heart as it were a burning fire shut up in my bones, and I weary myself to hold it in, but cannot.
