The heavens speak about God’s glory.\par The skies tell about the good things\par his hands have made.\par
At that time God saw wisdom\par and thought about it.\par God saw how much wisdom was worth.\par And God approved of wisdom.\par
Heaven belongs to the Lord.\par But he gave the earth to people.\par
The Lord spoke the command,\par and the world was made.\par The breath from God’s mouth\par created everything on earth.\par
God is the judge,\par and the skies tell about his goodness.\par \i (SELAH {\cf2\super [298]})\i0 \par
Lord, I look at the heavens\par you made with your hands.\par I see the moon and stars you created,\par \{and I wonder:\}\par
The wise people will shine as bright as the sky. The wise people that taught others to live right will shine like stars forever and ever. {\cf2\super [134]}
