For

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

In whose hand are the depths of the earth;
The peaks of the mountains are His also.

He established the earth on its foundations,
So that it will not be moved forever and ever.

To Him who stretched out the earth upon the waters,
For His lovingkindness endures forever;

Then God said, “Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place [of standing, pooling together], and let the dry land appear”; and it was so.

“Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth?
Tell Me, if you know and have understanding.

In this manner you shall say to them, “The gods that did not make the heavens and the earth will perish from the earth and from under the heavens.”

For they willingly forget [the fact] that the heavens existed long ago by the word of God, and the earth was formed out of water and by water,

And

The Lord reigns, He is clothed with majesty and splendor;
The Lord has clothed and encircled Himself with strength;
the world is firmly established, it cannot be moved.

Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns;
Indeed, the world is firmly and securely established, it shall not be moved;
He will judge and rule the people with fairness.”

“While the earth remains,
Seedtime and harvest,
Cold and heat,
Winter and summer,
And day and night
Shall not cease.”

“Or who enclosed the sea with doors
When it burst forth and went out of the womb;

‘Do you not fear Me?’ says the Lord.
‘Do you not tremble [in awe] in My presence?
For I have placed the sand as a boundary for the sea,
An eternal decree and a perpetual barrier beyond which it cannot pass.
Though the waves [of the sea] toss and break, yet they cannot prevail [against the sand ordained to hold them back];
Though the waves and the billows roar, yet they cannot cross over [the barrier].
[Is not such a God to be feared?]

And hangs the earth on nothing.

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