Thus

This is the account of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made earth and heaven.

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.

It is a sign between Me and the sons of Israel forever; for in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, but on the seventh day He ceased from labor, and was refreshed.”

Hezekiah prayed before the Lord and said, “O Lord, the God of Israel, who are enthroned above the cherubim, You are the God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.

Then Huram continued, “Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who has made heaven and earth, who has given King David a wise son, endowed with discretion and understanding, who will build a house for the Lord and a royal palace for himself.

“You alone are the Lord.

You have made the heavens,

The heaven of heavens with all their host,
The earth and all that is on it,
The seas and all that is in them.

You give life to all of them

And the heavenly host bows down before You.

“Who among all these does not know
That the hand of the Lord has done this,

The heavens are Yours, the earth also is Yours;
The world and all it contains, You have founded them.

Covering Yourself with light as with a cloak,

Stretching out heaven like a tent curtain.

To Him who made the heavens

with skill,

For His lovingkindness is everlasting;

Who made heaven and earth,
The sea and all that is in them;
Who keeps faith forever;

Thus says God the Lord,
Who created the heavens and stretched them out,
Who spread out the earth and its offspring,
Who gives breath to the people on it
And spirit to those who walk in it,

For thus says the Lord, who created the heavens (He is the God who formed the earth and made it, He established it and did not create it a waste place, but formed it to be inhabited),
“I am the Lord, and there is none else.

“Surely My hand founded the earth,
And My right hand spread out the heavens;
When I call to them, they stand together.

“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways
And My thoughts than your thoughts.

“For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth;
And the former things will not be remembered or come to mind.

It is He who made the earth by His power,
Who established the world by His wisdom;
And by His understanding He has stretched out the heavens.

The burden of the word of the Lord concerning Israel.Thus declares the Lord who stretches out the heavens, lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him,

And when they heard this, they lifted their voices to God with one accord and said, “O Lord, it is You who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them,

For we who have believed enter that rest, just as He has said,
“As I swore in My wrath,
They shall not enter My rest,”
although His works were finished from the foundation of the world.

Host

And beware not to lift up your eyes to heaven and see the sun and the moon and the stars, all the host of heaven, and be drawn away and worship them and serve them, those which the Lord your God has allotted to all the peoples under the whole heaven.

and has gone and served other gods and worshiped them, or the sun or the moon or any of the heavenly host, which I have not commanded,

For he rebuilt the high places which Hezekiah his father had destroyed; and he erected altars for Baal and made an Asherah, as Ahab king of Israel had done, and worshiped all the host of heaven and served them.

By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
And by the breath of His mouth all their host.

And all the host of heaven will wear away,
And the sky will be rolled up like a scroll;
All their hosts will also wither away
As a leaf withers from the vine,
Or as one withers from the fig tree.

Lift up your eyes on high

And see who has created these stars,
The One who leads forth their host by number,
He calls them all by name;
Because of the greatness of His might and the strength of His power,

Not one of them is missing.

“It is I who made the earth, and created man upon it.
I stretched out the heavens with My hands
And I ordained all their host.

They will spread them out to the sun, the moon and to all the host of heaven, which they have loved and which they have served, and which they have gone after and which they have sought, and which they have worshiped. They will not be gathered or buried; they will be as dung on the face of the ground.

And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying,

But God turned away and delivered them up to serve the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, ‘It was not to Me that you offered victims and sacrifices

forty years in the wilderness, was it, O house of Israel?
