9:8 he alone spreads out the heavens,
and treads 1 on the waves of the sea; 2
9:9 he makes the Bear, 3 Orion, 4 and the Pleiades, 5
and the constellations of the southern sky; 6
1:6 God said, “Let there be an expanse 7 in the midst of the waters and let it separate water 8 from water. 1:7 So God made the expanse and separated the water under the expanse from the water above it. 9 It was so. 10 1:8 God called the expanse “sky.” 11 There was evening, and there was morning, a second day.
104:2 He covers himself with light as if it were a garment.
He stretches out the skies like a tent curtain,
148:4 Praise him, O highest heaven,
and you waters above the sky! 12
148:5 Let them praise the name of the Lord,
for he gave the command and they came into existence.
148:6 He established them so they would endure; 13
he issued a decree that will not be revoked. 14
150:1 Praise the Lord!
Praise God in his sanctuary!
Praise him in the sky, which testifies to his strength! 16
8:27 When he established the heavens, I was there;
when he marked out the horizon 17 over the face of the deep,
40:12 Who has measured out the waters 18 in the hollow of his hand,
or carefully 19 measured the sky, 20
or carefully weighed 21 the soil of the earth,
or weighed the mountains in a balance,
or the hills on scales? 22
40:22 He is the one who sits on the earth’s horizon; 23
its inhabitants are like grasshoppers before him. 24
He is the one who stretches out the sky like a thin curtain, 25
and spreads it out 26 like a pitched tent. 27
44:24 This is what the Lord, your protector, 28 says,
the one who formed you in the womb:
“I am the Lord, who made everything,
who alone stretched out the sky,
who fashioned the earth all by myself, 29
