For he founded it on the seas, established it over the rivers.
Should you not fear me—oracle of the Lord— should you not tremble before me? I made the sandy shore the sea’s limit, which by eternal decree it may not overstep. Toss though it may, it is to no avail; though its billows roar, they cannot overstep.
Who spread the earth upon the waters, for his mercy endures forever;
declare among the nations: The Lord is king. The world will surely stand fast, never to be shaken. He rules the peoples with fairness.
Where were you when I founded the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding.
By the Lord’s word the heavens were made; by the breath of his mouth all their host.
All the days of the earth, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, Summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
Whose hand holds the depths of the earth; who owns the tops of the mountains.
The Lord is king, robed with majesty; the Lord is robed, girded with might. The world will surely stand in place, never to be moved.
Yours are the heavens, yours the earth; you founded the world and everything in it.
