'Creation' in the Bible

for the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world, by the things made being understood, are plainly seen, both His eternal power and Godhead -- to their being inexcusable;

for the earnest looking out of the creation doth expect the revelation of the sons of God;

for to vanity was the creation made subject -- not of its will, but because of Him who did subject it -- in hope,

that also the creation itself shall be set free from the servitude of the corruption to the liberty of the glory of the children of God;

for we have known that all the creation doth groan together, and doth travail in pain together till now.
