Which

can you help God spread out the skies
as hard as a cast metal mirror?

Then God said, “Let there be an expanse between the waters, separating water from water.”

The heavens were made by the word of the Lord,
and all the stars, by the breath of His mouth.

He wraps Himself in light as if it were a robe,
spreading out the sky like a canopy,

God is enthroned above the circle of the earth;
its inhabitants are like grasshoppers.
He stretches out the heavens like thin cloth
and spreads them out like a tent to live in.

This is what God, Yahweh, says—
who created the heavens and stretched them out,
who spread out the earth and what comes from it,
who gives breath to the people on it
and life to those who walk on it—

This is what the Lord, your Redeemer who formed you from the womb, says:

I am Yahweh, who made everything;
who stretched out the heavens by Myself;
who alone spread out the earth;

You are to say this to them, “The gods that did not make the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from under these heavens.”

An Oracle

The word of the Lord concerning Israel.
A declaration of the Lord,
who stretched out the heavens,
laid the foundation of the earth,
and formed the spirit of man within him.

Treadeth

when I declared: “You may come this far, but no farther;
your proud waves stop here”?

The floods have lifted up, Lord,
the floods have lifted up their voice;
the floods lift up their pounding waves.

Around three in the morning, He came toward them walking on the sea.

After they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea. He was coming near the boat, and they were afraid.
