"Of oldYou foundedthe earth,And the heavensare the workof Your hands.
In the beginningGodcreatedthe heavensand the earth.
"For in sixdaysthe LORDmadethe heavensand the earth,the seaand allthat is in them, and restedon the seventhday;thereforethe LORDblessedthe sabbathdayand madeit holy.
AhLordGOD!Behold,You have madethe heavensand the earthby Your greatpowerand by Your outstretchedarm!Nothingis toodifficultfor You,
Thus the heavensand the earthwere completed,and alltheir hosts.
For allthe godsof the peoplesare idols,But the LORDmadethe heavens.
Beforethe mountainswere bornOr You gavebirthto the earthand the world,Even from everlastingto everlasting,You are God.
For, behold,Your enemies,O LORD,For, behold,Your enemieswill perish;Allwho doiniquitywill be scattered.
I said,"In the middleof my lifeI am to enterthe gatesof Sheol;I am to be deprivedof the restof my years."
