'Places' in the Bible

“The paths of their course wind along,They go up into nothing and perish.[Your counsel is as helpful to me as a dry streambed in the heat of summer.]

Who alone stretches out the heavensAnd tramples down the waves of the sea;

“Dominion and awe belong to God;He establishes peace and order in His high places.

“He breaks open (mine) shafts far away from where people live,[In places] forgotten by the [human] foot;They dangle [in the mines] and hang away from men.

“Do not long for the night,When people vanish from their places.
